@dratino with my grandmother, every time I talked with her on the phone, the conversation would inevitably devolve into "I raised you from birth, I gave up my life for you, I did everything for you. You should do things for me, like send me gifts (money/gift cards)." I just got sick of it finally. I'm just sad that it took me 42 years to realize it.
@dratino while I appreciate your positive vibes, I don't think things will get better. I haven't spoken to my grandmother for over 2 months (she refuses to call me and I got tired of being the one to call her), and I have no idea where my mother is or how to get in touch with her anyway.
