Grandmother Is Having Affair With A Married Man and Neglects Her Grandchildren
I am not sure if the grandma mentioned in this letter is currently married or her husband is dead.
The letter writer says granny (her mother) is having an affair with a married man and does not spend time with her grandchildren.
See there? Married people have affairs, and contrary to Christian propaganda, being a parent does not make people more godly or mature.
Here is the letter.
DEAR AMY:
- I’m a mother of three children. My mom lives seven minutes away and barely sees my children.
What really makes me upset is that she has been having an affair with a married man for the past 10 years and makes time to go on “dates” almost every day.
Then to make matters worse, I can’t take my children to her house because my daughter is allergic to her dog. Is it wrong of me to expect her to give the dog away if her grandchild is allergic to it?
My children can’t even stay the night at their grandparent’s house. I feel my mom is extremely selfish and doesn’t wish to have a relationship with my kids.
What upsets me more than anything is that I never ask my mom to watch my children, but when my husband and I decided to go on our honeymoon, she volunteered to watch my kids but then charged me to do so!
Am I the one who’s being selfish or am I justified in my feelings that she’s the selfish one?
— Upset Mom
DEAR UPSET:
Your mother is selfish, self-centered and self-oriented.
Given that, why would you want your children to spend the night at her house?
