Today, I rushed to my son’s house, eager to meet my new grand-baby, who his annoying wife wouldn’t let me see at the hospital. Before I could even pick the baby up, his wife started freaking out that I “smelled like cigarettes” and threw me out because it was “bad for the baby.” FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I drove to the hospital to see my newborn. I went to the room, picked him out of the crate and held him. Then I heard the toilet flush and saw a woman who I didn't know come out. She screamed. My wife was in the room next door. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were visiting his parents. When we got there, I hugged his mother, and she glared at me. Later that day, I heard her telling her son that he should leave me because I smell like cigarettes, and she hates smokers. I don't smoke, my boyfriend does. He did all the way there. FML
Today, I met my son's girlfriend and I’m convinced he’s lost his damn mind. She was rude, racist and offensive, grossly obese, absolutely stank of unwashed body odour, her clothes were filthy, and she dropped cigarette ash everywhere she felt like it. I’m stunned, completely stunned. FML
Today, as punishment for getting caught kissing my precious newborn grandbaby two years ago, my son and his nasty wife have barred me from even meeting my second grandbaby until she's at least two months old. FML
Today, after my 4 year-old was so excited to be a big sister, hugging my belly every chance she got, counting down the days till the due date, my son was born this morning. She took one look at him and declared, “I don’t like him, leave him here, do we have to keep him?” then started crying. FML
Today, I was having a cigarette in a smoking area when a mother with a pram strode towards me and exaggerated a cough to make some sort of point. Reluctantly, I put it out and walked off. I then turned around to see her lighting up a cigarette, and blowing smoke all over her baby. FML
Today, despite being the first to hold all my other grandchildren, despite my son and bitch of a daughter-in-law agreeing I would be the first, I showed up at the hospital to see my daughter-in-law's father holding my grandchild before me. FML
Today, I had to go pick up my kid, because he threw up while playing at his friend's house. The boy's mother bitched me out for not keeping my son at home while he was "ill". Her breath was unspeakably foul. So foul that it caused me to throw up too. FML
Today, I was at the airport to pick up my mother since my baby is due soon. As she arrived, I smiled wide and opened my arms for a hug, but she walked right by me. Apparently, being pregnant makes me unrecognizable. My husband and I had to tell it her was me, her own daughter. FML
Today, I had to snatch my son's phone to hang up his “super important work phone call” and force him to pay attention to the nurse trying to hand him his newborn son, while his wife was passed out. He's so career obsessed, I don’t think he noticed his son being born at all. FML

You are not entitled to see your grand-kids whenever you want. And I bet if you find your daughter in law annoying, you are quite annoying to her. Stop being a j3rk an quit smoking

Smoke particulates can be. My wife with asthma has proven that. Smoke doesn’t have to be actively in the air for contaminants to be coming from you. Being around the clothing of someone who smokes will trigger bad asthma attacks for her. Plus, if you are a life long smoker, your pores are also exuding contaminants as it seeps out of that. With the nasty shit they add to cigarettes, you are literally a toxic spewing nightmare. For your, and everyone else’s sake, PLEASE look into quitting.

Maybe your son should finally divorce you and actually be married to his wife because she will get the kid in the divorce and courts can ban you from harming the kid with your habits and mother in law from hell bullshit. You'd better pray she hasn't been documenting your behaviour for the ammunition. Just from what you wrote, she's got a whole munitions dump against you already.

Baby is only a day or two old and you’re already a shit grandparent, wow. Keep it up, you’re never going to see that baby again and wouldn’t be surprised if your son goes no contact.

Wear clean clothes and do not smoke before a visit.

It's their baby, not yours. It's very rude and presumptuous to invite yourself to their home to see the baby. Especially if you're reeking of smoke. No one wants to smell that, and it's definitely not good for a newborn.
