What I would is just tell her no end of story if she has a problem with it then that's on her! She needs to grow up
What an entitled woman, what a strange request she go to strangers birthday party. Just tell her no, and say that quite frankly itâs an entitled thing to expect. She doesnât know the birthday girl or the parent, and explain that absolutely no other grandparents are attending because itâs a weird thing to do. Also calling herself mom mom? Thatâs just next level crazy.
@Rachel my mil is called mom-mom too I hate it but its my husband's side of the family tradition But anyway I agree with Rachel just be blunt plain and simple seems you've been nice about her feelings long enough
Hey there mama, so very sorry youâre stuck dealing with this lady. So you may not like my point of view but Iâve been in a similar situation for almost 6 years. She would call herself mom, baby and manipulate my husband, etc. So the problem is that you donât like her response to your no. It sounds like you already said she cannot go thatâs why sheâs bringing it up to your daughter. You need to talk to her one on one when she pulls this shit in the nicest way possible. Let her know your boundaries and what is / is not acceptable especially when it comes to your child. This whole booo hooo is crap and not tolerated. She is very childish and thatâs annoying. But thatâs a choice sheâs making. And you made a choice to allow it. You have got to stand firm in your no. I promise it gets better. You can message me if youâd like đ Itâs taken me 4 years just to finally set some boundaries and another year to stick to them. And now Iâm trying to create a better relationship with her.
Sounds lile regardless how you put it she's going tobe upset đ¤ˇđźââď¸ I would just say this is a small party and the invite is only extended to My daughter, Husband, and I. We cannot invite you along as this would be extremely rude and disrepectful of us. Just be blunt and truthful đ¤ˇđźââď¸
Sorry but this made me laugh. How the hell a grown up expect to be invited in that kind of event. Wtf with this lady
The fact she calls herself âmom momâ tell em everything I need to know 𤎠You donât need to do anything. Sheâs being ridiculous and I wouldnât even engage with her about it. We donât always have to explain things to people.
I am not understanding why she think she would be invited to the party and why she is upset someone she doesnât know didnât invite her to a birthday party? Just say no and thatâs that. If your daughter asks why she isnât there, explain that she wasnât invited because she doesnât know the birthday family. Iâm sorry youâre dealing with this⌠sheâs crazy.
Mom-Mom?! Hell fucking no! Hold my rings!
I'd be telling her she can get over it and herself. Selfish. And to involve your daughter and make you out to be the bad person đŠ I'd be going very low/no contact with her and keep your child away from her if shes going to use her like that
Do NOT bring her. And do NOT ask your client. That will put a strain on the professional relationship
@Sam my aunt has her grandkids call her "Great Mom"... as her niece, that makes me feel some type of way for my cousins
Thanks everyone. To answer some questions; No we are standing strong and not letting her come. This is my "work friend's" kids 2nd birthday party. There's no reason for her to come uninvited. Someone had said talk to her and establish boundaries. I've known this woman since I was in high school (when I met my husband). I have tried to talk to her and establish boundaries since. We are now in our 30s. That ship has sailed. My husband is done with her as well. That's her son. I'm not getting into his reasons. It is at the point where once we leave we are going no contact. There is no talking to her. She does not tolerate anyone's boundaries but her own. Party is tomorrow. She's not talking to us. So hopefully it stays that way.

Wait she calls her self mom mom? That would piss me off just thatđĄ why does she need to go? She's not her parent and like you said it's not like it's a family friends party
