Some people may not agree with what I’m about to say, and that’s perfectly fine, but my mum passed away 3 years ago, and I didn’t spend every day with her while she was alive, because you know, life. I look back now and know that I wouldn’t have done anything any different, she seems so dependent on her parents, that when they do go, I don’t think she will cope with it at all. She’s no independent woman! I moved out at 16 and have winged my life ever since, bringing up 5 kids without carers on hand every day. And while my MIL is amazing, you don’t catch her coming on all our days out, or coming round every day. She only comes on days out for one of the grandkids birthdays, because she has her own life to lead, and i don’t need a babysitter! Her parents have a lot to answer for, as they’ve made her who she is today, a self entitled, spoilt brat!
