I won't go into the full story here as it would take you 10 minutes just to read it. The summary is my MIL is just plain mean and has been saying rude things about me and Tabatha, behind my back, but to Tabatha's face. Tabatha told me yesterday, "Mama, Grandma H. said I was just like you and she didn't mean it in a nice way." I questioned husband to see what exactly was said, and Tabatha was right. She didn't mean it in a nice way at all. I told husband I don't want Tabatha going over there every Saturday and I don't want to be there either. Husband disagrees with me. He says Tabatha has to learn how to deal with mean people. That's true, but she is only 3! (in spite of the questions she may ask and the things she knows) Husband told Tabatha that whenever her grandmother says something mean she should say, "Grandma! That's mean and you are making me sad!" Tabatha thought about that for awhile and said, "Daddy, even when Grandma is being mean and making me and mama said, God still loves her very much."

Wow. Sorry MIL is doing that. eww, not good to do to a child. -Really grand response from your husband. If it's too much pressure for your daughter to have to do that, feel free to get her out of the situation. Sorry your MIL is like that  |

I wouldn't have it, I would tell the child to said "IF you dont have anything NICE to said then don't say anything at all" quote from Bambi which I agree the grand mother should not say mean things to a 3 year old OR infront of a three year old. My mother was mean but no this is not to be done Tell granny if she doesn't watch what she says around your 3 year old then I reckon she can see her. Maybe that will do her some thinking I would say she loves the child so yup this is what I would say to her.
Hope things goes better

Ps we have a grand mother that let's the kids do what ever they want and no she is NOT to see the kids because of this so she is either gonna listen to what his daughter tells her to do or not see the grand kids.
