Thanks for all the great responses last night. Gave my nevermo's husband and I lots of things to think about. As luck would have it- we heard from our dil today. She is working hard on convincing our son (convert 2yrs-ago) to Maybe let us babysit our grandson we have not seen in months... Why?? Because we adore him? Nope we've been there for them since they started dating? Nope it's the right thing to do? Nope
She misses her date nights out with our Son.
It's very frustrating and hurtful and just plain stupid on her part not to see when you have loving grandparents that want to just love the baby. No agenda- just want to take him to the park' play at our house, just normal stuff...
My husband is convinced none of this will ever happen. Even though dil seems to be the sweetest thing ever . She sure seems controlling? And manipulative? What is the most effective way to communicate our desires to her about spending quality grandparent time with the baby? I've asked her many times to get together.. Always an excuse not to. Passive aggression was mentioned to me last night here.
