    Ok, I haven't read the whole thread, but it was ridiculous from the beginning, but it took a whole new turn when someone started complaining about grandma doing crafts without asking first. WTF?! What are they allowed to do with them?!

    Man, I can't believe people are taking this thread so seriously. Am I the only one who sees a tongue in cheek comment?

    People are going overboard, as usual. This is the same board where it's routine to see posters advising folks get a divorce over petty nonsense like "my husband doesn't appreciate my weight loss".

    I didn't think the OP was being serious. And even if she was we don't even know the context of her relationship with grandma. People just hear "grandma", assume she's some sweet, benevolent saint, and the OP is the wicked daughter or DIL who is stringing her up. For all we know the OP could have talked to grandma about overfeeding the kids, and she continues to defy her out of spite. We just don't know.

    Agreed!:flowerforyou:

    The truth is probably somewhere in the middle . . . :smile:

    when I was younger you got a medal for winning, not taking part and I wasn't emotionally scarred by it.

    I kinda was, but I was a loser. :blushing:

    Dear Posters,

    I wanted to offer a brief explanation for the locking of this thread. This discussion is welcome to continue in groups.

    The forum guidelines include this item:

    15. Divisive Topics Are Better Suited For Groups, Not the Main Forums

    Divisive topics and posts, particularly those that seek input from or are relevant only to a select group of users, are better placed within an appropriate Group rather than the Main Forums. For example, topics relevant to only one religion should not be placed on the main forums but rather within a group related to that religion.


    If you would like to review the forum guidelines, please visit the following link:

    At our discretion, this locked thread may be deleted entirely in the near future.

    With respect,
