Relationship with My Mother
It gets me so angry and upset that my mother doesn't initiate any contact with me. I go once or twice a week to visit with my toddler. LO had a cold so I skipped the week. I ended up facetime and my mom's like, "I've been waiting for you guys, looking out the window time to time if you driving by" but she didn't bother to pick up the phone to call how we are.
Last week when I was over, I told her she needs to come by from time to time because sometimes it's just too stressful with LO going there. She says, "yeaah sure!! Definitely, we can cook and hang out" It's been a week I haven't heard a single word. It's not the first time I have told her this.
She expects from me to do all the work. I see no interest in her or care only when we are present. I don't understand it, I'm so tired of always doing the work it makes me angry and emotional. I'm expected again this week to say we are coming over and she barely plays with her grandchild. She only gives her stuff to eat, kiss her and says she's got no energy for more. I don't want to cause an argument but I'm honestly jealous that my daughter has a better relationship with my MIL than my mother. Should I stop expecting more? Do I stop going for visits?
