Need to vent

HH

I just need to vent. So if you read this, I appreciate you.. and if you don’t.. I totally understand.

Back story: My husband and his mom have a very strained relationship. As he puts it “I love her, but I don’t like the person she is.” So at our sons first birthday party two weekends ago she showed her ass. She made some inappropriate comments and made an unnecessary scene. Luckily just a few people witnessed it, but one of those people was my husband. She made some inappropriate comments about my husband’s dad’s new wife. (They have been divorced for years and she is also remarried). So my husband put her in her place and told her that she could either behave or leave. So anyway there has been tension between him and her since the party because he was very disappointed in her behavior. So now she is trying to buy her way back in. Like literally buy things for our child so my husband will engage with her and she can try to see our son. So my husband just tells her to leave things on the porch or in the mailbox. So my vent:

1. You shouldn’t have made a scene at your grandson’s birthday party

2. I am donating the things you buy because we don’t need them/we already have an excessive amount of them/or he has grown out of them

3. Stop trying to guilt my husband

4. If you want to buy things, buy diapers and wipes.. we always need diapers and wipes!

Vent over and I truly am grateful she is giving us things.. just the motive behind them is not ok

Thank you 😊
