[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 22597, member: 1514"] If the baby is his all I can tell you is my experience. You know I am not overly fond of the mom in our situation. She is flaky as hell and causes Cory so much grief. I put up with her because of the baby. I dont get overly involved with her or invest much emotional energy in her but the baby is what is important. It honestly wouldnt cause me to blink twice if she fell off the face of the earth sad as that is to say. If this baby is his, you will do the same. You focus on the baby. If she chooses to call you about some garbage, you redirect the conversation to the baby and ask when you can pick her up for a weekend. In fact, I would start out from the get go and ask to set a schedule of visits for you. Say something like every other weekend of spending saturday nite with grandma and grandpa. I have a friend who does this. Their grandbaby is 6 months old now and they have been getting her since she was a month old every other weekend. I think they may get her every weekend now for an overnite. But this will be good for you and for her. If it is your grand daughter she needs to bond with you. With wingnut constantly redirect the conversations back to the baby. That is all you have in common. If she wont redirect, you can have someone at the door, something on the stove, dye in your hair you need to rinse out...something. [/QUOTE]
