Today, my husband and I told my parents that I finally managed to conceive. My mom burst into tears of joy and said how great it was that she's finally going to be a "real" grandma, all within earshot of our adopted and now-devastated daughter. FML

Your daughter should cheer up! You can't choose your mother but she was chosen by you :)

Your mom freaking sucks. You should make her apologize to your daughter.

My response to that is: "Well, until you act like a REAL grandma, you don't have to see EITHER of them OR me!"

Aw I hope you comforted your daughter and told her that your mom didn't mean it. I agree with one of the top comments, where parents can't pick conceived kids, but they can pick adopted! She was wanted all along :)

That sucks OP. My sister has a different biological father than me but he met my mum and took her in and raised her since she was two. When I was born my sister was 4. My maternal grandmother decided to tell my sister (a boldfaced lie) that my dad would never love her as much as me because I was his "real" daughter. I get bitchy grandparents, believe me. Just tell your daughter that your mother knows nothing and that you love her the same. There will be trouble down the road but just make sure to reassure her constantly :)

Oh my gosh, that's horrible! FYL for sure, OP.

poor girl what a crappy thing to say.

There is no acceptable reason for this. Your mom can now yell with joy that she is officially a "real" bitch.

I've never understood that. An adopted child is just as legitimate. What an asshoke grandma.

That's really horrible and your mom should be ashamed :/

Are you telling me she's fake and not real because that's what it seems like
