This is not the first time this has happened. I am a fairly active and vibrant grandmother, just 59 years old, that plays an active role in my grandchildrens' lives. I have 6 year old twin granddaughters. Facebook has been troublesome for me before. I love my daughter in law to death but today she posted that one of the little twins had fallen somewhere last night and was taken to the emergency room and had staples put in her head!!! I am livid! I want to post on FB...wow, thanks for letting me know or something similar.
I know that would not turn out well for me. Last year she posted photos of my 13 years old granddaughter and a birthday party, complete with decorations and a lighted cake. They had borrowed my car that day, I was stuck at home and I was told nothing about it. They all just tried to act like I was overreacting when I got upset. I was in acute benzo withdrawal and almost threw my computer across the room, it took me a while to get over that.
I stay on facebook mostly to see photos of them or god knows I would not get any updates. It is a dilemma for sure.
Am I wrong to feel hurt and left out? I just was picking the kids up everyday from the school bus and keeping them at their house for 2 weeks, it's not like we don't talk!!! I don't need this crap.
