So i am someone who was raised by mu grandparents. I never met my mom since they say she dissapeared when i was 6 months, leaving me with my grandparents and never returning.
I am now 34 years old with an 8 year old daughter. My grandfather passed away just as i was entering my teen years. My grandmother passed away before i had a child. I had my child two years after my grandmother's passing and i named her after my granny.
I got a job a year ago at a different city from my home city. No one knows us there. So i would pay for my daughters after care since i come home after 4 pm and she gets out of school at 1h30.
But surprisingly I'd always find my daughter at home. Eaten, night bath and tucked on the couch sleeping. When i asked the after care teachers they said she never showed up for after care. Which stlll does not make sense to me.
When i asked her she told me that she was fetched by her granny and she likes spending time with her granny plus it saves me money. When i asked her which granny she said the granny on my photos. My daughter and i have had the granny talk before and she knows that my grandmother has passed away though i don't think she understands what it means.
I took out my granny's pictures and showed it to her and she nodded that, that is the woman who fetches her from the school gate. They walk home and she makes her something to eat, then bathes her then they watch tv until she falls asleep.
This scares me so much because i believe mu daughter. I believe her because now my house is always clean, things are packed exactly how my grandmother used to like things packed. Some other time i found pap and chicken cooked exactly how my granny used to cook.
That freaked me out so much that i went to school to ask the teachers if they see the person fetching my daughter and they said no. Apparently my daughter walks home alone. I have never taught mu daughter how to cook or clean but i found cooked food and the house is always clean.
Laundry always done and when i ask the neighbors to be on the look out for me , they say she gets home on her own and hangs the clothes by herself. She's only 8 and I've never taught her how any of those things are done.
The clothes are always folded how my granny used to. The other day i found the clothes hung exactly how my granny used to. This terrifies me so much. I went to school and asked them to never allow her to walk home, she must stay for after care.
She has been staying and she has since become very sad and rude. It breaks my heart to see her this way. I have consulted and i was told my grandmother is the one who guide and protect her in my absence. And the fact that she was named after her makes my grandmother over protective of my child.
My question is what should i do? Should i let them spend time together or beg my granny to leave my daughter alone and go rest in peace? My daughter has become something else since i am forcing her to stay at after.
We are even drifting apart. A lot of times she sits alone in the dark , crying and sometimes she 2wakes up with puffy eyes to show that she has been crying her eyes out.
care.
