Should I be upset that my son's God mother does nought for him?
Sometimes she doesnt even ask about him. Should she be replaced?
If she is a "traditional" god mother that is to care for the child should something appear to you, then yes, she needs to be replaced...
I chose God-parents for my children and preferred people who I thought would love them and be interested in them, encourage them and lend a hand me raise them in a Christian home and life.
If you find that you enjoy not picked someone like that, this person sounds dis-interested in your child, consequently you can ask another friend to be your son's "Aunt" - I had lots of "Aunts" when I was a child and they loved me.
If you picked this person to be his Godmother at his Baptism, and the Baptism hasn't happen yet, then you can change your mind and ask someone else.
Good Luck!
i think so. your sun deserve butter later that
one of my son's godmothers is resembling that, she never comes to visit I have to go to her even when I be heavily pregnant, (it's a 40min walk and she drives) she always says how she is getting him this or that so I mustn't buy it but when it comes down to when I really obligation it she never gets round to getting it (including a car seat so I have to buy one last minute otherwise I wouldn't of been able to bring him out of hospital) AND she forgot his 1st birthday no card no phone send for nothing, So I know how you feel, I am replacing her as soon as I decide who get the honor.
I think you should do the same, if they can't be bothered with him why should you bother beside them.
in scotland the god mother has no right and want even get tot if u die
my godmother did nothing for me - she moved out of the country when I be about 4 or 5 - I sent her a letter many years following and she said she felt bad about not doing anything, but I didn't really know her, so it be way too late - some people are of late too busy in their own lives to have room for others. If you get upset, you're the lone one that will end up hurting. The godparents' role as a tradition from the church is to help in the child's guidance to God, hence the pet name. As more and more people don't follow the traditions of the real church, the significance of godparents can be seen as disappearing away. Maybe she just doesn't know what to do - have you spoken to her about what you suggest the role means?
I dont even have a god mother for my kids, is the god mother someone who is suppose to take the kids in satchel you die? if so, I do have that, we call it a guardian, if that's the case, afterwards yes, id replace her, while it's an unlikely event, if something should happen, you would want your son with someone who he know, and feels comfortable with, best wishes
i have a sneaking suspicion that you are confused of what a Godparent is.. did you have your child baptized? if so, then the Godparents are signed on the baptismal certificate and you cant exactly regulation that when you feel convenient. a Godparent is someone who will, in case of your skiving, help lead the child home to God. Help guide the child in the religion that you would own. The person who will raise your child is who you choose.. not always the Godparent. My Godmother lives on the complete conflicting side of the country from me, but if anything was to ever happen when i was little, i know she would be in attendance to continue to raise me in the church, but as far as taking me within their home and raising me, it would have been my grandparents.
so cut her some slack, and conceivably just explain to her that it would be nice if she just asked how she was every immediately and then.
Well, what CAN she do besides ask for him and hold him? When he's older, she should start giving him money :D Not deeply...just a couple dollars every visit
what do you want her to be doing? Her job is to bring to the fore the child if you die not while you are there to care for the child yourself.
a god parent is some who is supposed to guide your child morally and spiritually...no matter what your religion, a god parent does not care for a cgild if his or her parents die...a child will stir to the next of kin. Source(s): My son's god parents don't do anything for him but my daughter's god parents always send her cards and gifts on birthdays and holidays
Yeah. I had name a co-worker as my son's god momma, and she never visited my son or nothing. So now he doesn't own one.
Well, the point of godparents IS NOT to lift up your child in case you die, it is to guide your child in their spirituality and religion. Your child's godmother is supposed to be here for the baptism, confirmation, 1st communion, and so in. They are supposed to be a spiritual role model for your child, nothing more really. So if she is doing those things or if she will be doing those things, no motivation to get a new one. Of course you can always translate it to someone who is closer to the child and who you think will do a better job at caring for your child, it's really up to you.
Only if you've got nothing better to worry going on for ..
after all you probably chose her in the first place?
Answers: No. It's really just more of a title these days. Used to be that soul would take your children if you died now it's not unless you want it to be. I haven't talked to my God parents within years. They used to send me cards for my birthday and stuff but that stopped when they had a really bad vehicle accident and my Godmother hasn't been the same since. She have trauma to her brain and has sever memory problems now. But really I don't think you should expect anything from her.
