[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 605364, member: 1514"] wow is girlfriend a number! I guess this child is going to be the second coming...lol. If you can at all possibly convince your son to get a dna test then do it but I was not successful in pushing this command. Now it may be that your son's girlfriend will be forced to get one if she wants any state services because of the fact that your son is in prison. I dont think too many officials will believe their story. I am so sorry you cant see your grandchildren right now but you are right in not allowing to be blackmailed into anything. I adore my grandchildren but when my youngest got his current girlfriend pregnant we made it very clear that we wouldnt do nearly as much for this baby as we have done and still do for his first child. Well that was easier said than done let me tell you! I dont buy as much or watch her as much but we still help out from time to time. In fact my difficult child is back living with us now and he has his youngest with him about 80% of the time. We do make him do for her when he is here though. I havent changed a diaper in ages. I did backslide and just ordered her a pretty nice birthday present though...lol. It doesnt help that she is a cute little thing! We can see us having to be the stable home for her in the future. husband and I talked just the other night about when she goes to school where she will go from. I will not be surprised if it isnt from my home. Hopefully by then she will be easier to handle than she is as a toddler. We will cross that bridge when we get to it though and not borrow trouble now. She has a little while. It is very hard to say no to the kids but I still say you can help out your grandchildren without providing financial aid. [/QUOTE]
