You're not being selfish. You're realizing the grandmother you dreamt of for your kids doesn't exist (in your mom). I'm so sorry.

Not a Horse :
I get so jealous of my friends who have “villages.” I literally don’t even have someone to put as my child’s emergency contact.

I live 2.5 hours away from my mother. She is AMAZING. But I NEVER expected her to have everything my kids needed in her tiny house. EVER. That’s a little much.

These comments aren't it. I 100% get this. You want your mom to WANT to be there for you and for her grandkids!! I'm so sorry!! 🤍

the problem is the generation at 50+ right now has to keep working. both grandparents. so it's hard to work all day and then be a fully present grandparent. this isn't the 80s 😥

I maybe the odd ball but I’ve never expected anyone I’m coming to visit to have all the items I should be providing my child during our stay.

I'm shocked at some of the comments. I'm a grandma. I have all this stuff at my house. anything given to them in duplicates got sent to the grandparents. I would drop everything to help my kids!!!

When you ask someone to watch your kids it’s up to you to make sure your kids have what they need. I never expected my parents to buy my kids diapers for at their house. I brought the pack and play an

Reading some of these comments are not it! It’s awful when you have no help raising children! We live in a society where the Grandparents just check out after their children are grown.

well, as a GMA to 6, I'm tired. I was a stay at home mom for over 20 yrs. I'm caring for my FIL with dementia. I'm an RN. there's only so much of me to go around.

I stopped asking for help. My kids are not as important as my siblings kids. I learned my lesson years ago

I literally have the best parents but in no way do I expect them to replicate my house when my daughter stays the night there.

I get it, but as a mom with 3 kids, if grandparents watched my kids, I’m taking everything they need. She is doing you a favor, took time off work..

I feel I’m just grieving. I’m grieving what I thought it would be. Then I grieve as this was probably how I was treated as a child

Unfortunately they are still working. Today's economy doesn't allow them to retire and be with family.

I guess she should provide the food, but you should bring everything else your kid needs. Also I fully understand your mom not wanting to suddenly change the plans and come to your house when she has

I’m on mum’s side here. I would never expect mine to drive that much but also being 2 hours away, makes it that much harder for actual support + visits sadly.
