my husband and i met in college. before we graduated we had a daughter. because my mother lived 3,000 miles from the university we attended, we agreed to allow our newborn baby to live with his mother (because she volunteered) and she lived only about 3.5 hours away. gosh, i missed my baby so much and because i could only afford to come and be with my baby every other weekend it was very stressful for me. my mother-in-law would never call me to let me know how my baby was doing neither would she call to discuss anything about my baby's doctor visits or to simply hear her voice. she never wanted me to give my opinion on anything that i thought would be best for my child. whenever i was at her house for the weekend, i would want to hold my baby and bond with her, and my mother-in-law would shout in a very nasty tone put her down! whenever we would try and talk to her about how she was treating me she would get very angry. am i wrong for not wanting my children around her?
