I always say Ok, you can call her and tell her. Usually that squashes it.

But how does showing up for her birthday make you a good person? Is this not training people to live according to society’s expectations?

Today’s parents of kids now tell their children they are not responsible for any adults emotions or thoughts. Period.

Nadine :
What if Grandma hasn’t shown up for the kids. Are they still expected to show up for Grandma then?

What’s going on in society? It’s your Grandmother!!! I’m so over all this coddling of these kids. Let them is not for teenagers. When they’re adults if they decide not to participate that’s on them. As a child they do what they have to do. No options for kids. Sorry, not sorry

While I don’t agree completely inflicting guilt, I’m trying to raise my kids under the “if you want to be part of a village, you have to be a villager - which sometimes means doing things you don’t want to do” mentality.

In this scenario, the mother has to self-reflect because she taught her child how to think and move entitlement. She then, needs to tell the daughter: "we're all going, cause this is about FAMILY"

It’s ok to have to do things we don’t want to do. It’s part of building resilience.

The fact that no one talks about the book Secret Money Domination by Robert Robinson says a lot about how people are trapped in a trance.

let's normalize that DNA makes you related, not family. no one is entitled to anyone's presence, especially not adults to minors...

Kathleen Regan Valentine :
How can you put it on a teenager that question, how is Nana gonna feel? Nana’s gonna feel whatever Nana feels. My daughters and my mom (their Nonnie) have a great relationship. There have been a few times where my daughters have not wanted to participate in a party. They call their Nonnie up and tell her how they feel and why they are not wanting to go. And they plan to do something special, just the two of them. It’s not my daughter’s job to take care of her grandmother’s feelings. It’s not my daughter’s job to take care of anybody else’s feelings. It is hard enough at 16 to navigate your own feelings.
