My son in law had a child when he and my daughter married over 25 years ago. The girl was raised by her mothers family.
I will be honest, She and I rarely see eye to eye as she is selfish, demanding and manipulative.
Her mother is ill, and lives over 2000ks away. She has had to have open heart surgery. The girl has left her children - a girl aged 8 and a boy aged 3 with my daughter and son in law and gone to be with her mother. Yes It is natural to be worried about your mother ...but.... the children have now been here a month and it looks like they could be here for another month.
My son in law runs his own business and my daughter is part owner of a busy cafe so juggling the children is becoming difficult. The only way they manage it is taking the children to work with them or leaving the little boy with me as he is a bit of a handful.
Am I wrong in believing that the girl should get herself back home and resume her duties as a mother? How can anyone leave their children for a month or more even if they are being well looked after? She has not even spoken to her children in over a week.
I know this may make me sound heartless, but even if I was on my death bed I would not want my children to leave their families to look after me
