My darling grandsons father has never been interested. No involvement. No support. No interest. He lives overseas and isn't British although he went to university here. Grandson is now 17 months old.
He (father) has now decided that he wants to Skype with my grandson. My daughter is going to do it. Sounds harmless.
I'm anxious though. Father comes from a culture where sons are very valued. We may well go back to live in the country he's from (for work - he was in a relationship with my daughter last time we lived there). I can't help worrying that a snatching situation might occur. He's the only grandchild and fathers parents know about him.
My daughter thinks I'm panicking for no reason. Probably I am. BUT she likes a bit of drama and I don't trust her to make sensible choices. Normally it's fair enough. It's her life so... whatever. But with her son? She should ALWAYS think of all the angles (in my opinion).
Anyway. I'm worrying. The Skype call will happen while I'm at work.
I don't think dad will be able to not think his son is lovely. He's a winsome, attractive, sociable little boy. It'd be hard NOT to be proud of him. I'm worried a can of worms is about to be opened.
How do you acknowledge Easter.
