he does. he is just a horrible old man, if you haven't read the other part about him saying to my other grandad about that 'he shouldnt come down to ours and interfering with our lives' 2 weeks after my nan had died. do you think thats what a normal loving person would say? i think not.

I am sorry M&MWHP but you are sounding more and more like a spoilt little brat in all of your posts, if you dont like the way your grandad behaves then stay away from him, I am sure he is not very proud of the way you are speaking on here either grow up

Totally disrespectful to discuss a senior family member on an open forum like this, whatever his personality or shortcomings.
You are presenting yourself very poorly, to the entire World. Take Desktop's advice, obviously knows what she is talking about.

its for a little bit of a giggle about him, not to start any kind of arguement with people such as yourselves. what makes you think i am some spoilt little brat?(i deffinatly do not appriciate this) i have respect for people, but the only person i dont, is him. why should i if he speaks and treats people the way he does, even if he is my grandfather or not. and i do keep away from him. other members on here have given me some nice advice, and some very very lovely comments, and extremely supportive...

calling your grandfather a horrible old man is not very nice is it!! when you started this thread it didnt sound like ' a bit of a giggle' - you started it and asked for opinions and that is what you have got. maybe you should have posted it in the junior area

At 16 you have decided your grandfather has too much money for his own good? People pick up vibes and I am pretty sure your grandfather picks those up from you. lmao as if you've said that? its not just her is it.. like she said.. he has been doing it to her dad for years, years beyond when she was around? and has said called her mum things for no reason, which i know the family and her mums lovely so its not her grandad "picking those up from you." i think people have taken this too far saying that shes being selfish in any way, she never said she wanted a pony off him? all she wanted was for her grandad to talk to her and be involved, is that too much to ask for? yet she is being selfish. the posts not here to have a rant at her

Right, this is ridiculous! When this post was started everyone was giving m&mwhp advice and kind words! All it takes is one person to say something nasty and you all jump in and give a little bit more!! This post was probably created for a giggle like she said, but also, for people to understand what she is going through.. Is that not allowed? It must be awful having a Grandfather that favours your cousins whether you like them or not! I don't think it is at all selfish, of course you're allowed to feel a little resentful. I don't have a grandfather, he died! Yet, i don't feel that m&mwhp should have more respect at all, he doesn't really sound lke a nice man and she can think of him as she pleases, he is hers, no one elses! People on here are far too quick to be bullies! And they all bounce nasty comments off one another, you all think that she should grow up? I think it's about time some of the adults grew up and realised just how cruel they are to some of us 'kids!' Well, i am 17, but i have recieved so many horrible comments! To be honest i think a lot of us a getting a little bit fed up with it, it's just not on.

i didnt ASK for opinions though... i just wanted people to laugh at how stupid he's been and being !! i just want a grandfather that loves the people he's got, and soon he may be the only grandfather that i do have! i just want him to care, and people who understand me and my situation are being lovely to me. as soon as someone mentions his name, they run a million miles just so they dont have a run-in with him! he drove my godfather away over blooming sugarbeet!!!! they dont even speak to us now, even though his wife has been best friends with my mum since they were little girls. hes stuck in the days where he was the big man, and everyone else MUST look up to him whilst he looks down over the tip of his nose. the only reason he won at hoys was because of my nan... she had to do everything for him, and he just walks into the ring, grabs the rossette, runs out with it as fast as possible and hands the horse back to her. fair? i dont think so. i wave at him, he ignores it as if i wasnt there... as if i shouldn't even be born... how do you think that makes me feel towards him? Thank you harriet and lrh!! you understand what i am going through! xxxxx

Quoting what someone else said, saying 'i agree' is generally known as 'jumping on the bandwagon'. It's not nice to be ganged up on! Yes, when you add a thread, you have to be aware of critisism and be prepared to take it on the chin, but there is such a thing as a 'step too far'. I know you didn't say it, but you agreed and calling this girl a 'spoilt little brat' is below the belt and totally out of order

Not really a lot of need to bring it back up.. I guess the only reaon for doing that is because i asked you to tell me what i said that was upsetting you, you couldn't do that as i haven't said anything upsetting at all! Good night

actually you are upsetting me because tomorrow is the anniversary of my fathers death and i was thinking how my children are missing out because they never had the opportunity to know their grandfather and how devastated and ashamed i would be to hear my children talk of their grandfather in the way you have talked about yours!

fair enough highhil.. but you have to understand the circumstances? she is the victim in this. hardly being a spoilt brat for wanting to spend time with her grandad whilst she can. you should understand this of all people.

Please don't guilt trip me! You are an adult after all! I have not once metioned her grandfather, except for in my original post, which you chose to 'quote'! Since that, we were discussing the 'spoilt brat' topic. So that comment was uncalled for! Of course that is devestating! Remember i know how your children feel! However, there is no way my comments would have cause the upset of your current situation.
