WELL , I have an update
she came for coffee at 4 today , she turned on the tears within seconds … the kettle hadn’t even boiled !! She was really apologetic for what she said but we think we have gotten to the root of why she’s been so strange … she’s lonely ! she doesn’t drive and has moved from a town where she could walk to see her friends and go out to lunch to living somewhere where she needs to get 2 buses to see them … seeing our son twice a week is literally only her social life at the moment so of course she’s going to be sad when he’s gone
it was all okay and quite amicable until we told her that we think it would be best if our son went to nursery from September to socialise with babies his own age as he’ll nearly enough 2 and a half and quite honestly I’d like some mummy friends
she then went ballistic again and said this was all a “scheme” ….. I remained calm throughout , explained we had to do what was best for our child and not her
I’m worried about her , I seriously think she needs to get some help because she’s not acting like a rational human being … FIL came too and he was so embarrassed by her behaviour ….. safe to say the custard creams didn’t get touched so I’m eating them in bed and sulking while husband is on kid duty to give me a breather
SIGH , so we’re kind of back to square one .. what do we do now ? Help please ! Hubby is at his wits end with her but I am SO grateful he can see that she is acting like a crazy person and hasn’t blamed me
