    Default She's angry b/c I missed school?

    So, I'm worn out today and decided to stay home and rest up. I don't miss a lot of school but when I do I usually need to. My grandmother is being very cold and fussy at me for it. I know she cares about me but I am 29 years old. I know how many days I can safely miss. I'm investing a lot of money and time of my own to my education. I would not jeopardize that. It's bad enough to feel like shit then to have someone hounding my ass for it makes me feel worse. I love her and appreciate her very much I just can't deal with someone being on my ass. Then every morning she tells me what time I need to leave to get there on time. I've been late once for school in 8 months. I know what time I need to leave and own a watch. My grandmother has been to Charlotte less than 10 times in her life. I just want her to back off a little bit because she's stressing me out more but I don't want to hurt her feelings. She is a pretty sensitive individual, any ideas or thoughts?

    She comes from a completely different generation than we do. My parents are 62&66 and they are some tough ass people. I'm assuming your grandma is older than that so she's probably had to raise children thru the depression, deal with world wars, etc--life was much more fierce back then. i.e. 'I had to walk 8 miles thru the snow with a twisted ankle to get to school and you just have to get in your car..' etc etc

    This is just a guess.

    Oh yeah, she definately comes from tougher times. She came through the depression which had to be hard on her. But I don't see why she has to make things more difficult now than they need to be.

    My mom did the same when I lived with her. What's really ironic and hilarious is that my mom has a history of hypochondria and positive results to placeboes, yet she chews me out for puking or staying home with a sore throat and a fever.

    ^Yeah, I don't think she is hypochondria but she has insane reactions to the smallest amount of meds. I have never seen her not have some sort of psychological or stomach problem to a new med.

    My mom is the same way. Psychotic over education. Thats why I got the hell out of dodge at 18, waited til 24 for student loans so she couldn't harass me about anything.

    But, my mom came from extreme poverty and education was her only way out so she was like ahhhhhhh why is my child taking this shit for granted, etc, etc. (which probably is similiar to how your grandma feels)

    Why don't you sit down with gram and let her know how you feel. Explain to her that you feel shitty enough missing school and she is not making it any better. I think some elderly people don't realize how different life is today than it was back then.

    ^I've tried talking with her today but it leads to arguing, I don't want to fuss. I don't feel like it. I'll tell her it makes me feel worse for us to fuss though. Thanks.
