I dont work so we do live off his incomeso Im always home...which has its ups and downs.. But now heres the issue my mother supported me through everything and shes very very close to the baby and wants to take her every weekend faithfully... Now at the time I dont mind because like I said I am young and I feel like its a break sometimes for me to go out. BUt then I start to think Im a bad parent for letting her out every weekend like if I wasnt responsible. I love my daughter very much and I want to show her that I can raise her the right way even though I had her at a young age and not that Im dumping her with gramma. Now the baby is getting really attached to my mother bc she really really spoils her I dont know if it has to do with the baby sleeping with her when she spends the night at my moms house or what ... Sometimes I feel jelous because she always wants her to hold her and pick her up...When my daughter gets older how do I let her know Im the boss?? Sometimes I dont know if my daughter knows Im the mother?! I dont know what to do I can't just take the baby away from my mom shes her life!! I dont want to either my mom really helps me when I need her help.... Should I not let the baby sleep out every weekend even if its with her grandparents??
