I have just joined gransnet 3 grandchildren and unfortunately a dil who is very unfriendly and distant and a son who chooses not to try and make things any better so i have been very interested in reading the forums on grans who also have problems (nice to know i am not the only one), but what i would like to know is other members opinion on the newpaper articles that seem to encourage the mil/dil feud an article i have in mind was in one of mondays daily newspapers about sending flowers and the meanings of such flowers one such bunch was to send to people you don't like and the journalist automatically advised as this would be one to send your mother in law perhaps i am being a bit to sensitive but i find these articles upsetting and they always seem to written by women did anyone see this article and if so what did they think
