Toxic grandparents

Toxic grandparents may engage in behaviors that leave a grandchild feeling hurt, trapped, or burnt out (such as disregarding boundaries, micromanaging, punishing, or expressing jealousy of other relationships). Dealing with a toxic grandparent involves setting clear boundaries; engaging in self-care; practicing acceptance; reinforcing progress; or, in some cases, ending the relationship altogether.

Toxic family dynamics. Toxic mother. Toxic father. Toxic sister. Toxic brother. Toxic Grandparents. Toxic aunt. No-contact.

Yes!!! You can’t expect to be hateful to your child or child’s spouse (or both), or to have not been there for your child growing up and/or as an adult and think you automatically get to be in your grandkids lives because you’re “a grandparent”. That’s like expecting to be a grandparent to kids that belong to a child you placed for adoption. Doesn’t make sense. If you’re toxic to means my husband and treat us poorly, we don’t want our kids around that or to see someone treating us that way…
