Today, I relive the day my concern for my granddaughter’s well-being collided with my daughter-in-law’s choices, unraveling years of silent judgment and unresolved family tension. It began at the playground, where my granddaughter stood out not just for her outfit, but for the wall of misunderstanding between her mother and me. That moment forced me to confront my own biases, and ask what it truly means to care for family.
