A few weeks ago I was asked by my Son and DIL if I would look after my 2yr GS so my son could take a trip to the seaside for a event he was attending and DIL would take other 5yr GS with them so she could take him on beach fair etc. The reason they wanted me to look after younger GS was because she could'nt cope with looking after both of them on her own. Because of long ongoing issues with my son they knew I would not go to seaside with them so I agreed to have GS with me. Fast forward a few weeks later I told my Son I had changed my mind and wouldn't be having my GS on that day, I can't explain why as it is to painful but what I will say is my son is very abusive to me when he can't get his own way. I have given them ample time to ask members of DIL family to help out and thought they had sorted it. Now the time is nearly here and apparently they have been let down and have asked me again. I've said no and now am being made to feel guilty as Dil has said she will have to stop at home. I'm pretty sure they can get someone else to do it for them or even take someone else with them. Thoughs and advice please.
