I am new to the blog world, so I am still learning. I am in a common law relationship that I have been in for twenty three years, mother of two daughters and proud grandmother of three. Over the years I have been obedient to my children, fulfilling every wish they requested of me, no matter what . For the past two years I have grown into myself spiritually and mentally. I have learned to say “no”.
Now that I am a grandmother, and have chosen to raise my children and grandchildren different from the way my parents did of me is creating friction between myself and my mother. Let me explain a little bit better. I love my parents dearly and I am very proud of my up bringing. I was taught independence at a early age in life. I have always worked since the age of 13 yrs old and have never depended on my parents for anything. I have brought my daughters up the same way, except when they are in a financial bind myself are my partner is their for them and that is where the problem arise between myself and my parents.
My daughters have always depended upon myself are my partner to help them in any financial situation, which we have done so and will always do so, as long as the situation is not life threatening. But I have learned to show tough love, because they need to grow up and make decisions that is beneficial to their livelihood.
