How do you handle boundary issues with your mother? She watches my son during work days but she has been crossing boundaries little by little. And when I bring up the concern I’m “making a big deal of a little thing” or “that’s not how I raised you”. I know I was gas lighted but now I have to find a baby sitter Since she “won’t watch him anymore because I’m stripping her rights as a grand mother”. I’m just so tired of fighting. And I feel so bad because SMG baby loves days with grandma. She’s almost 2 but now I’m feeling sad and trapped here….
If it makes a deal, my other is also Mexican and just bad the traditional mind set!

You tell her while you understand she has her own definition of what a grandmother means to her but as far as you’re concerned, being a grandmother doesn’t equate being his mother , so what you say..goes. And while you understand she’s traditionally stuck in her ways, you’re in your every right to draw boundaries as a mother because you’re exactly that, HIS mother. Lastly, being a grandmother isn’t a right, it’s a privilege. Those can be revoked. Why? Because you’re the mom and you say So.
You are no longer a child, so she has no right to treat you like one when you hold her accountable for her actions.
