I Refuse to Let My Son’s New Wife Stay With My Grandkids, I Don’t Trust Her

My son’s ex-wife, Lisa, passed away 3 years ago from can.cer. I loved her like my own daughter, and I had been one of her main caregivers before she passed. My son, Shawn, and Lisa have 2 kids, 4 and 5 years old.

Now, Shawn has a new wife, Kelly. Both of my grandkids now live with me, it was my initiative to arrange things this way. I still can’t understand how quickly my son found a new love and got married after Lisa’s death, so I’m just being cautious and want to keep my grandkids by myself for a while.

Recently, Shawn asked me to drop the kids off at their place so that Kelly could watch them and bond. I ultimately refused. I don’t think anything bad of her personally, but she doesn’t know the kids’ quirks or allergies. When I said no, my son got frustrated

 

Now, he wants to take my grandkids away from me permanently, insists that they should live with him and Kelly and threatens me that I won’t be allowed in their house, and they’ll forbid me to meet my grandkids. He said that I’m treating his kids as my possessions, and he’s seriously worried that I will set their minds up against Kelly, which I never had in mind.

Now, I’m on the crossroads, and I honestly feel like I’m being manipulated into decisions I’m not willing to make. Am I the villain here?”
