What right does a grandparent have when the grandchild lives with you?

Ok, my feeling were deeply hurt last night when my son brought home his baby and I asked him to bring the baby up to my room last night because I have back issues and can't always walk down the steps. Well, when I asked him this he told me that if I wanted to see the baby that I would have to go next store to the neighbors to see him because they were tired and didn't want to walk up the stairs with him!
This really hurt my feeling because they said that I had seen him and held him the day before. Did I have the right to have my feeling hurt? Do you think that by me crying, without them knowing, that I was over reacting?
I don't want to interfere with them raising him, but do I have the right to ask to see him? I am not saying all of the time, just maybe a time or two a day. Is this asking too much?

I think that is terrible and if I was your son you would never have to ask me, I would do it without even being asked. Even if your son was tired, obviously he is mobile and you are not and as his mother he should respect you and never deny you a chance to see your grandchild especially if he lives with you. Your son should really be ashamed of himself.
