Get up!

Today, I bitched out my grandmother, who lives with my family, for being lazy and laying in bed until 6-7pm for the past month. When I was done, she told me she had been diagnosed with cancer and was depressed because of it. Nobody had bothered to tell me. FML

YDI for bitching out your grandmother.

how about asking her if she is okay before going ahead and bashing her...

I don't necessarily think it was right for you to bitch out your grandmother, but if you weren't informed of her condition, then I don't blame you for voicing your concerns (though it probably should have been in a slightly more polite way). I agree with #62 (whose various comments did amuse me because he has a point) that just because people are old doesn't give them a right to do **** all. You can't just wake up one day and say "Oh, I'm 70-something and old, I think I'm just going to lay in bed all day". There was an 84 year old holocaust survivor that came to my school to tell us her story the other day and her life experiences amazed and inspired us all. She's old, and literally been to hell and back. Did she decide to be lazy in her old age? No. We SHOULD respect our elders, but we should also treat them like the human beings that they are. We should understand when they can't move as fast or get tired more easily, but being lazy is not right no matter what age someone is. So FYL for not having been informed. hope your grandma gets better

Being lazy when you're old isn't necessarily "not" right. I know people that look forward to spending time doing nothing after retiring. Not everyone, but there are people out there and they have that right. As someone already said, it's not like she was doing anything wrong sleeping until 7. What is it to you? It doesn't sound like that person was voicing their "concerns" I'm sorry if you're grandmother has been mean or cruel to you in the past, but you have no reason to bitch her out. I don't think you need to worry about your grandmother freeloading off of your parents or anything.

Wow, I can't even imagine what would happen if I raised my voice at my grandmother.

Probably nobody told you because you're the sort of selfish person who would "bitch out" their grandmother.
