(sorry) that i am the mother and therefore i set the rules and that if she could not respect them then i would have no choice but to put the kids in daycare. After talking and comprising we came up with an agreement on how she was going to care for the kids. You should sit your mom down and after talking yall are unable to compromise and come to an agreement then you should consider other childcare alternatives. Also remember to pick and choose your battles. Be willing to let the little stuff go. I had to learn this in all of my relationships including my mom and my kids. And please dont ever hesitate on asking for any advice in here. I definitely do not claim to be a professional but i have been through and learned a lot from having my kids. If theres something i dont know however, i will let u know and maybe someone else will have some advice. I hope you and your mom can resolve things for @ least the kids sake. I will keep yall in my prayers!

I'm going to try the quite time, lol but now I'm having a new problem. My mom, she helps me alot with my daughter (we live a five minute walk from one another) and I am greatful but she never follows my rules ie no sweets within an hour of dinner time ect when I talk to her she tells everyone who will listen how I'm a horrable to her and blew up about nothing...we play this "game" over and over I am thinking of cutting her off. I don't want to but I'm sick of the yelling ect in frount of my daughter. I left her father cause I think it's better to be from a broken home then living in one... now I wonder are my mom and me just making it a broken home with two addresses...(sorry about the bad spelling I had my computer fixed and they moved or removed my spell checker) any idea's or thoughts on how to move on or fix our issues?


Don't let people bait you into losing control. When you LOSE control, you give that control to someone else. Always show a GOOD example to your children, they lear what they see YOU do.
If someone is constantly causing you a problem, tell them your rules, your house/kids/possessions, or the highway.
