[QUOTE="Steely, post: 73739, member: 3301"] First of all <<<hugs>>> [img]:flower:[/img] You are going through a tremendous amount, and I think you are handling it extraordinarily well. I like the verbiage of your letter to difficult child, and the fact that you are refusing to give any money from this point forward. I think that was a highly important step. Are you also going to call CPS to get them involved as soon as legally possible? I don't know of time statutes - if the baby has to be born or not - but I would call them now to let them know this child is being born into an unsafe situation. Just a few thoughts on things you can do to, while still keeping your boundaries, to keep the baby healthy. -Can you get one of those phones that has just a small amount of pre-paid minutes just for difficult child to use? Or, maybe there are phones kinda like walky talkies where it calls only your number to theirs? Worth researching. -Buy difficult child pre-natal vitamins? -Offer to take her and pay for all her doctor appts.? -Get her some what to expect when you are expecting sorta books? And again, I would consult with CPS, and start working with a social worker now if at all possible. Have you done background checks on these parents? That could be important to do before you call CPS. Hang in there, and keep us posted. [/QUOTE]
