[QUOTE="witzend, post: 604263, member: 99"] It sounds as though you need to start by moving her towards participating in the household, like Nancy said. You don't say what state you live in, but here is a link to a place to start looking into grandparental rights in your state. The grandbaby having lived with you all of this time will be a HUGE factor in your rights. [URL]http://grandparents.about.com/od/grandparentsrights/a/VisitationRightsByState.htm[/URL] Before I'd start setting up a chores for rent scheme to present to her - which you should - I'd know your rights to your grandchild, and perhaps consult an attorney as to what your rights are. Some consultations are free, and you might be charged for an hour of time, which will be about $200 - $300, well worth the cost. I'd also be sure that she understands that if you find that she moves on and mistreats or neglects the grandchild you won't hesitate to turn her in to CPS.
