Having a quiet sherry while making my dinner and looking forward to a quiet evening/ and may be join MyLot for a while later on...but suddenly my grandson's girl friend drops in and my she was very upset she started an argument about how bad my grandson is[ but mind you she still wants my grandson] and I said to her if he is that bad why do you still want him? and she say because I love him...but he is a looser none the less! and that got me going...I say to her if he is a looser and you still want him back then you are a bigger looser! I got very upset end up crying...asked her to leave in all she just ruined my evening...I turned all light off just in case she comes back!
In all I Am still very upset! what would you do?

In my opinion my friend, maybe she dropped by to solicit some advise from you with regard to your grandson and you misunderstood it as that, hence you had an argument Maybe she was just trying to solicit help from you on how your grandson could change his bad ways.

Yes I agree she did come in to have a talk and that is good and fair...but then she started going on about how a looser my grandson is! mind you I was never nasty to her in any way...but she went on screaming at me! I just wanted a quite evening not an argument...so I guess I lost my cool and asked her to leave. Thank you for responding I appreciate it.

Screamed at you ? Oh my, if that happened to me too , i would certainly have shaken her out of it and drag her out of my house.

People never seem to learn that it is not a good idea to
talk about peoples kids to them. It's just one of those
areas best left alone. Next time, stop her before she gets
you upset. Just tell her you don't want to hear it. Or better
yet, don't answer the door!

Yes you are right! it was not a good idea...but I do recognize my grandson's faults I Am not blind to them...I just think if he is a looser [or she thinks so]what is she doing going out with him? and then to come and tell me about it? well... I just said she may be a bigger looser then!. Thanks for responding.

The truth hurts. In this case you told her she was a bigger looser than your grandson. I think what she wanted to hear was you telling her what a nice person she was for taking on such a looser.
My advice sit down with a nice drink, I would suggest a Cream de Mint, and relax. Next time don't use a 2x4 to hit her over the head use a 4x4, it might sink in then.

Yes I know the truth hurt being there done that but when some one is willing to take on a looser I will say put up with it it's your problem not mine! if she already think my grandson is a looser what sort of a relationship they expect to have? If I thought my boy friend was a looser I would never marry him. Yes a cream de mint would do wonders! thank you for responding.

She picked up the wrong person to vent her frustrations. Any grandmother would have been disappointed when someone outside the family paint a bad picture of their beloved grandsons. I would have said the same thing to her and would ask her to find a suitable mate.

That burns me up. She had no right to come into your home and come down on anyone in your family. It sounds like to me that she was just doing that in hopes of having you come down on him too. Trying to cause trouble. I'm glad you put her in her place but I am sorry that she upset you so.
I guess I would have pretty much did what you did....told her what was what and led her out. Try not to worry about her coming back and if she does..just tell her through the door that there is nothing left to say at this point. I bet your grandson is going to be upset when he finds out what she done...have you said anything to him?

Yes I told my grandson all about it...it turns out he no longer want to be with her that is why she came over... apparently she wanted me to know how she had to put up with a looser for such a long time and now how dare him! to break up the relationship! at the end of the day I can't understand her logic really...if he is so bad why can she just let him go?...I tell you for the past few days she is still calling him and begging him to go back to her! just go and figure that one! Thank you Jen for your response.

I don't think she'll come back, you just sit for a while and let the tension pass, by taking a deep breath and think of your previous plan. Continue your dinner and spend your time with mylot. Afterwards maybe you can listen to soft tunes until you fall asleep. Forget what happened a while ago, at least you have said the right things to her.God Bless!

That was rude of her making an argument with you with no respect at all. I say that don't mind this girl cause you will only ruined the night. Tell also your grandson about what happen so that he may turn off on that girl too. Just imagine the scene if your grandson will marry her without respect to his family or even in elderly, I might scold her if I were you.
