To be very angry on behalf of mum due to this being called neglect

Back ground one of my children's grand mother has been making horrible comments about another gc's care claiming he's being neglected and abused. Most of these are based on his clothes.

The child is about 18 months and delightful he's very obviously loved and well cared for rarely not clean.

Now today GM said to me that she had a mind to report the mum( not her child the dad is) to ss as his clothes are not suitable for anything and he's obviously not cared for. The child was wearing something much the same as this

Combined with a tshirt.

Outfit fit was well fitting clean looked like new and fine for the weather and child was not doing anything formal.child was also clean.

I lost it a bit with GM told her not to be so nasty and vindictive,that her idea of neglect was so wrong and if she did report she would come across as nothing but vile.

I'm now tempted to tell the mum what she's been saying and just reduce her access to my child when she's making comments like this.
Would that be ur

That's the same sort of thing Ijust.

It really is just trying to make someone who falls out with one of her sons or she feels slights her in some way look bad,

One of her GC was described to me as being starved and deprived she did report that mum and she was investigated and nothing was wrong.

Everything about her is solely done for appearance sake everything and if you don't do things exactly the same as her your wrong and abusers.weird given how her own children have turned out but then again she does openly say her grandchildren are a second chance for her to try again.
