No. It's because.. @my Send a noteboard - 03/09/2009 05:58:40 PM


You'll love this. One issue she kept saying over and over and over was:

How will you do this w/out your mother's help?

As if.


Let alone repeatedly? Have you complained to her or within her earshot about your mom, or vocalized a wish to have more help from her? Or is she just purely extrapolating from her own experience and thinking that she couldn't do what you're proposing without the help of her mom, so nobody else could either? Does she just think that you clearly (to her) need help with your kids and the obvious place to get it is from your mom, and since you don't have that you're in trouble?





When there is trouble, and I've had to call in because of no childcare, she tells me to take the kids to my mom's. I explain that a. I don't want them at my mom's and b. my mother isn't interested in babysitting anyway.. so she knows I don't have the "support system" that she feels I should have, as a working parent.
