I am heartbroken. My daughter has changed in her attitude to me. I am divorced,retired and live on my own. She has said I can only see my 3 beloved grandchildren once a month.
In a text, her husband said I make her sad.
We have had no falling out or arguments, in fact I used to visit three times a week. My very being seems to annoy her. I know it’s her call, but I miss them so much. Any help please?

Difficult to know how to help. Can you think of any reason why your Daughter's attitude towards you has changed or why her Husband says you make her feel sad? It does seem very strange if there has been no fall out or arguments. How do you feel is the best way to try and take this forward?

Have you been too pushy?

3 times a week seems like a lot to me.

Well, unless everyone is 100% with that happening. As some families are.

Maybe she just needs a break and some space.
