I feel kind of guilty that DD probably won't have as close a relationship with MIL as with my mom. I am really close to my mom and MIL have personality conflicts though we both make efforts. DD sees MIL plenty, but nothing like my mom. Don't know why this is on my mind just wondering if it makes me a bad mom or something. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

these things happen. as long as you don't get in the way of her seeign MIL (and she can increasingly do that without you as she gets older), or talk her down, it seems OK. [ Reply | More ]

i encourage mil to see dd and she does. now that you mention it though i'm kind of iffy on dd spending a lot of time with mil alone once she's older because mil is a little verbally/emotionally abusive to her kids which is part of the problem. it's probably that issue that makes me feel weird about the whole thing.

how is she with your child? there are a lot of people who were shitty parents but good grandparents. i'd certainly watch out for it but not assume it would happen, if you know what i mean. [ Reply | More ]

you never know. when she gets older she may develop a close relationship. i was much closer to my mothers mother when i was little, and in my teens became close to my fathers mother, too [ Reply | More ]
