I am a grandma...i'm a much better grandma than i ever was a mom..we learn with age...but the last 6 days of 8 i have watched my daughters kids(not unusual, i do this every week), 4 of these days i watched them for 12 hours each day. i told my daughter that i would like to have a break(i also have other grandkids besides hers and an elderly mother) and i was going to take the weekend off so she'd have to have her boyfriend (hes also the kids dad) to watch them because he doesnt work on weekends any way. i got up early saturday and headed out to spend day with my mom shopping and visiting. while i wasgone my daughter called and my boyfriend told her i was gone for the day and asked her what she wanted. she said she needed a babysitter. he told her that i needed a break, and he wasnt going to call me to come home and watch them...she got mad and cussed and he told her she ought to be thank ful because i save her several hundreds a month in daycare fees. later that night when i got home i logged on to facebook to chat with a friend and she had put on there that i was a terrible grandma and she wasnt letting me see the kids no more because i didnt love them....i'm hurt. her boyfriends family never watches. i have them all the time, i just needed a break
what do you other grandparents think? was i wrong?
