Advice from Amy Dickinson.
Tammy also has two children with my son.I told my son about it, and now he’s asking me to make a pair of slippers for the new baby.Should I go along with this, or is there a nice way to say that the child means nothing to me, so I’m not interested in doing it?
This child is the sibling of your grandchildren. Your grandchildren must be encouraged and allowed to accept and love this child. Why? Because it is best for everyone. Furthermore, you holding on to an angry attitude toward your son’s ex-wife leads to you passively punishing your grandchildren, who arechildren. Let your son carry his own water. You should work much harder to maintain a neutral attitude toward her, and a loving attitude toward all of the children involved.My husband and I have temporary custody of our 10-year-old granddaughter “Sophie” because her mother is currently in court-ordered rehab for her long-standing drug addiction.
An aunt gave Sophie the first Harry Potter book for Christmas, and she has really been enjoying it. She is glued to the book after school, and during dinner she catches us up on the plot.Her mother contacted us and raised a lot of objections to her reading this book. Her points were sort of all over the place, but she acted offended and asked us to take the book away and choose “more appropriate” material for her daughter to read.
