[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 475127, member: 1233"] I admire your restraint. I would have a VERY hard time not confronting her, probably in writing so it was VERY clear that she CHOSE to not allow your children to call her Gma J and she CHOSE to not not include you or your children as part of her family, so if she wants to change that she needs to come to you and discuss the matter, NOT just acknowledge one child's birthday when she just ignored the other. DDD is, as usual, the voice of reason, and I would follow her wise councel. But it would be HARD to not confront this issue. I hate this type of thing. ((((((hugs)))))) I know it was very hard to see your girls wondering and possibly hurt by her rejection in the past. I do hope that she is trying to change because she feels she should and NOT as a way to try to get into your home. I also hope H will man up and tell her that she is not going to live with you. Part of me, the small, not so nice part, thinks that maybe you should get her to sign the house over to you and H before you tell her. That is manipulative, so I don't think that it is a mature way to handle things. I would urge you to see an atty about your options should she decide that since she can't live with you she is going to sell the house or not sign it over to you. [/QUOTE]
