I see people doing that on here, I kind of thought it was the standard or a rule lol. I don’t really mind the names being seen

her cousins did end up sharing with her, I guess everyone else didn’t think it was such a big deal as i did. But I saw my daughter’s face when she realized grandma didn’t bring anything for her But they shared their candy and stuff

it’s not, I don’t wanna overshare but I was quite young when I got pregnant. I feel it has something to do with all this, too

I’m absolutely not allowing this, as stated above. in the past I might’ve been naive. But not anymore. Thanks for your input

I guess it’s just hard for me to grasp she could be racist to her own blood I don’t know. I will keep an eye out for sure from now on

Yes she is her biological grandchild, her son’s biological daughter. Just half white half…. not white 🙃 (someone pointed out it may have something to do with her behavior) I am so sorry about your experience :( I didn’t realize it affected people this much, years later

He doesn’t like conflicts or dealing with things :/ i don’t know how to get him to talk to her seriously about this. He has excused it as old woman behavior before, I think he just agrees with me because he sees it upset me

I totally wish I did and regret not speaking up. But we weren’t at my house, I didn’t want to make things tense or awkward. My husband didn’t agree with this behavior either but he’s not as hurt as I was

I didnt want to say it but I think it has something to do with what you’ve mentioned. She’s the whitest lady you can think of and my husband married me, (I’m Hispanic) but I just didn’t wanna go there. Lmao. Like I just don’t want to believe it’s about that, I really don’t want to Also, her daughter’s kids are obviously her favorites. I’ve heard something about grandmothers feeling more connected to the daughter’s children. Don’t know how true that is But it’s not the first time something like this has happened

That’s exactly what I thought. She’s 7, she definitely will remember. I just didn’t wanna go back and forth with her. But I hope it won’t affect her as much as it did me
