[QUOTE="Star*, post: 364398, member: 4964"] Well I think Grammy is an angel. You know - if your daughter was not a difficult child - and if she was a young Mother - and you had a good relationship - and she was in a house, without a car - and the baby got sick and she called you for advice with him crying in the background - YOU would have done the exact same thing for that daughter and your grandson. Soooo I don't see where you did anything non-detaching there. We are talking about a sick baby. When that happens EVERYONE in a family pitches in with advice. EVERYONE. The fact that she called YOU? I'm thinking is A-MAZING. Her text wasn't snotty - it was desperate. HELP ME - I think it could have gone really bad, in another direction, but instead she called the person she trusted and knew would have an answer for her - because a sick baby IS frustrating. Sometimes the advice comes too late - but in this case she called you for help. The fact that she was on her way to the ER? Kudos for that kid not waiting another day or two. Frustrating? YOU BETCHA. Should she have been parading him around like a puppy? H no. But if this is what happens when she does that? And the crying is getting to her? Maybe ----just maybe she'll think the next time about not taking him out. We can only hope. I'm sorry hon - I think what you did was awesome. Detachment or not - Ya' done good! Hugs [/QUOTE]
