Dear Grans, I am a loving mum and gran, nothing makes me happier that when the little ones come and visit. But I think the reason why it works so well with my daughter is because I let her be independant and she's appreciative and hence by not always asking her to come and visit, she spontaneously comes! I've just read a book called Kiss of Thorns, by Lilliane Rosse (was on amazon kindle) and I never came across such an appauling story. It's about a vicious and narcissistic gran that tries to take her little children away from her daughter, for the only reason that she does not love her son in law. HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE? What is her own mother tried to do that to her, how would she have felt? I highly recommend the read, i've enjoyed it very much!
