In need of a vent. 😴😔💔
So for those of you who don't know my situation, I'm a single mother living at my parents house raising my 21 month old daughter. Lately, my mom has been really good with my daughter vice versa, however - my mom has been treating me like crap and saying really hurtful things to me whether she realizes it or not. Today, she told me she likes my daughter more than she likes me. Going on about how much better my daughter is than I am, and telling me I'm the problem.. 😤 Then, she said how did my daughter end up so smart when she has two dumbasses as parents. Talking about me and my ex. 🤕🤕 Its just really rude and hurtful. Not to mention, my mom tries to make me feel bad for being tired or stressed with my daughter. I'm sorry but my whole schedule changed this past week, with me starting work and my daughter starting daycare... I can't help but to be tired and get frustrated w my daughter when she doesn't sleep til 1am.. I have to be up at 6am every morning. So, yes... I am a little tired and agitated. That doesn't give her the right to make me feel like a shit mom. And whenever I try to discipline my daughter, my mom comes and rescues her and makes me look like the bad guy. It's gotten to the point where my daughter prefers my mom over me when she's home. 💔 I'm thankful she gives me a place to stay and helps me out with my bills, but she's literally being such a bitch to me, and acting as if I'm invisible while she gives my daughter all the love and attention. It's really hurtful and makes me want to fall back into the depression I had shortly after I gave birth to my daughter. 😢

That's not ok for your mom to do, but from her perspective you're living under her roof and she feels like she needs to demand rules for you to follow. I think you should sit down and talk with her because this is your child and she shouldn't interfere with raising her. Especially when she requires discipline. Without discipline there is no boundaries and without boundaries your daughter will become more and more difficult for you.

Oh mama I'm so sorry to hear that. I know the struggle I don't live with my dad I actually live a ways from him but he treats me the same way with my oldest. He constantly tells me what I'm doing wrong and what I should be doing etc. Dakota knows grandpa likes him more like really come on. I'm just going on a limb here, maybe she finds your daughter healing. Trying to make up for the past. The way she's treating you is so wrong but maybe she doesn't see it. Don't let this bring you down. You know your a great mom! Don't let anyone family or not steal your shine

Sorry to hear.. Ive heard alot of grandparents say that they do love their grandchildren more than their own kids (it sounds kinda messed up but that supposably we will understand once our kids have kids) but thats not right for her to do/ say either way & dont feel bad, any parent would be tired & agitated (I know I would be too) if I were u I would move out asap
