Fear
Show your support
It's common to have this fear of being replaced in your child's life. I sometimes go through similar feelings when my child prefers my MIL over me....but I want to assure you that NOONE can ever replace you...you're her mom...the one person who is her safe place and confidant. The reason she runs to grandparents place is because it's new and excited and a change in her boring routine. It's doesn't mean she loves them more than you. Imagine you ate vegetables everyday and then suddenly one day you are given a cupcake...of course you'd be excited for the new cupcake! Be happy that she has a strong bond with her grandparents and is making connections with others. But no matter what, she will always want her mommy❤️
I can totally related…but we will always be our kids “Mama” 🙏🏽
Nah they could never replace you, that’s good that they have a awesome relationship! My daughter adores my parents and they helped me parent her for the first 2 years of her life as I was a single mom and lived with them during the first 2 years. She still spends a night or 2 a week sleeping over with them. She had a hard time when we moved out not being able to see them every day. They say she’s a angel for them but she likes to push my buttons because I’m her mom and she feels most comfortable unleashing her tantrums on me lol best to keep letting them have a great relationship so they have more trusting family they can go to in the future
Grandparents love is something else. I am home with my kids 7 days a week and they still go crazy for grandparents. My in-laws live across the street from us and they still work. So in the evening when they are back and weekends our son runs across the road to grandmas house and has dinner there daily. On weekends, the moment he wakes up, he wants to run to grandma haha.
