Sounds like it's time to sit her down and let her know that it's not okay for her to say things like that. She's welcome to her opinion, but she needs to keep her mouth shut!

We had to set a lot of boundaries with my ex-MIL (not about the kids, but the same theme...saying hurtful things and causing trouble in the family). It got to the point where she was disowned for several years, and not allowed contact with any of us. Made a big difference in her attitude, believe me!

Yep!! time to put dear old grandma in her place.
I'm a grandmother and if i had hurt the feelings of any of my children or grandchildren I'd want to know, even if it hurts. It'd be a shame if she lost the priviledge of seeing her grandson, that may be an option. Talk plain to her, don't beat around the bush
Be strong, think of your son's feelings

Sit her down and set the rules. Hearing comments lke that is very emotionally upsetting for the children. Do not put up with it! Good luck.

My MIL constantly talks about her other grandkids (she favors them severely), her oldest son has 2 kids and he's in and out of prison so they live with her, her daughter has 2 kids and a step-child, and hubby and I have 3 and 1 on the way. She doesn't even realize she does it, but when we come home from her house my kids always have something to ask about why Grandma always talks about the other kids. P!sses me off, but not much you can do with in-laws. And if/when you do then she'll complain to everyone in the family and you'll be a horrible person in everyone's eyes.
