[QUOTE="BusynMember1, post: 752162, member: 23706"] This is how I see it. It is truly only my opinion. I would have preferred, if it were my husband, that he had not said anything around the grand child and had vented about Daughter's lack of consideration after the party, when you were both at home. I am guessing that this is likely typical rude behavior for your daughter and not a big surprise. So why act surprised? I expect my daughter to be inconsiderate and, when we used to plan events with her, we expected her not to behave well. When it finally became too much for us,we stopped attending and had our own private celebrations with our grandson. This was before we were told that we could no longer see him. On the other hand, I could never take kindly to my husband being cussed out by my mother. I can't imagine it, really. I would expect adults to act better than that. I would have been appalled and would have tried to talk to both parties individually. I don't like conflict, BUT sometimes even I have to take sides. I hate it! Personally, I would have been upset with the behaviors of your husband, your daughter and your mother. For the baby's sake, I think it is better to hold things together and not bicker and shoot comments at one another in the presence of the grandchild. I assume she heard the bickering. It was her birthday and not her fault. All of this is not how YOU should feel. Just my own way of dealing with discord. There is no right way or wrong way to deal with crazy conflict. Follow your gut. God bless. [/QUOTE]
