eladblum Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Would like to imply to my wife that her grandmother is making a De legitimization of her (my wife) as a mother when she (the grandmother) is speaking with our 7 year old when my wife is not around. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
