Granny, I have a son in law like that. He doesn't let me talk to my daughter unless he can hear the conversation. If I try to call her, I have to ask permission...... I have not talked to her since Mother's Day two years ago. When she told me I was not much of a grandmother since I only managed to get there to visit every two years...... Up to that time, I was visiting two times a year. I told her cars could drive both ways..... When my mom moved to MD she got a cell phone, it is cheaper than a land line she claims. Any way, Moma is always asking when the last time was I talked to the daughter, I told her I don't bother anymore because of SIL. She says well next time I go to visit, she can talk to you on my phone and he will never know. She wouldn't call me, sooooooo much for that!
Yesterday, I wished all three of my daughters Happy National Daughter's Day. His reply???? Awwwwwwww so sweeeeet. I will tell her when she gets home from work tonight...... Haven't heard anything yet!!
He is mad at me anyway. He posted a picture on FB one time and asked me if that was my first selfie? It was some really fugly bird! I posted that I was still practicing because I was so bad at picture taking that I could not even get me in the picture. He replied that I was better than I thought since the picture was a perfect likeness of me.
I had to wait a couple of months but he finally gave me the chance to get even when he posted a picture of some naked bear in a Russian bear in a zoo. I posted, " you are in soooooo much trouble, wait till your Mother sees that nudie you posted of her for the WHOLE world to see!!!!!! "
What goes around comes around.......
