Jul 2, 2015 at 7:12 | comment | added | Thorbjørn Ravn Andersen | My mistake - I forgot 1) cultures are different and 2) asking how these things work in your culture, so I implicitly assumed that you were in a culture similar to mine where saying things like this would not necessarily burn bridges but rather open doors. Is this a culture-clash thing? | |

@ThorbjørnRavnAndersen I am from India. so, -- and that unless something change very drastically she will not be seeing her grandkid(s) as much as she could? -- talking like this is NOT normal here. It is simply not permitted. Saying something like this will be burning the bridges permanently. Have you informed your mother why things are as they are, Yes, but talking to her is like talking to walls. She wants to take me to a mental doctor so that I can start behaving like "other normal people" do.
