My 33 year old SD is resentfull of my 8 yr old granddaughter
Forums:
I have raised her with my husband with my 2 children now 32 & 34 since she was 2. She makes comments, talks behind our backs to her friends and boyfriend. I mention my 8 yr old GD and she cringes with hatred, yet pretends she is the special Auntie when she is around her. My HB is on my train of thought. His BD is nuts and just like her Mother. She has to be the center of attention or no one is and you will pay. I dont even want her at my home anymore. I have a hard time even being social with her and her narcissest attitude. Plus we hate the free loading boyfriend. It will be a cold day in he!! when I cant praise or talk about my GD just because she is around. Thanks for the vent.
Seems like she is jealous
Seems like she is jealous since this child is from your birth children and not hers.It seems to raise some kind of insecurities in her .I don't think you should stop talking about GD at all- SD needs to get over it and understand that not everything can be about her.Once she has her own child she will hopefully understand better.
My HB and I have talked and
My HB and I have talked and he is fed up with having to walk on egg shells, just so she doesnt throw a fit. I'm going to continue to talk and brag about my GD and 2 GS's, she can just deal with it or stay away. Its time for her to grow up or else get therapy. I'm just glad that my HB sees this as a problem also
No not intentially bragging,
No not intentially bragging, just talking and bringing up her name sets her off. AND yes I LOVE her. I helped raise her for 32 years for petes sake. So why the heck would you assume I dont like her, its her actions of lately that have been huge issues, so Until you live in my shoes maybe its you who should grow up!
My SD21 is terribly jealous
My SD21 is terribly jealous of my 10 year old niece, who is very close to my husband. We have helped raised N since she was born and SD has been jealous since N was born.
SD even told him he should not treat N like a daughter, as she is not even his blood (N is my sister's daughter). He was pissed. My husband told her that N loves him for who he is, with no strings attached, blood or no blood. It is not blood that makes people family. Related by genetics, yes, but not necessarily family.
It is not our niece's fault that SD sabotaged her relationship with her father and continues doing so with her stupid remarks and attempts at guilt.
Definitely time to grow up. SD is married with 2 kids of her own. Move on.
my SD has issues in every
my SD has issues in every department, at 33 I would have hoped she would have resolved some of them, but they seem to just esculate. My happiest times are when she says she cant make it when the other kids are home and it brings peace to our house. Even her 25 year old half brother (mine and hb) says she has some real issues with life.
