[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 617096, member: 1514"] Hi and welcome to this corner of the universe. I understand your situation and frustration too. I also have a child who steals from me. He also has two kids, one who has just turned 2 and lives with him. Its so hard when there are grandkids in the mess. I have managed to get my son out of our house several times but it appears he might be back here for a short period. He actually has a rental house right now but when it got so cold, and the baby was sick, he asked to come spend a night or two with us. We really dont mind that. However this time things went down the tube because the night after he came to visit someone broke into his house and stole a bunch of his belongings. Problem is they kicked the door in and stole his heater. This means he cant stay there right now and he called his landlord who wont fix things unless he pays his rent. My son doesnt want to pay rent because he is now afraid to live in a place that someone might break into with him and the baby there. No one should have known he was gone. So now he is back in my house until he can figure something else out. Believe me I am not thrilled. Right now I am a little bit afraid he may have stolen a 50 out of my purse but I cant figure out when he could have gotten into it because I keep it beside me at all times. Personally if his youngest daughter wasnt so attached at the hip to him I would toss him out but that baby will scream for hours on end if she cant find her daddy. Im too old and sick to listen to a 2 year old scream "I want daddy!" all day long. Today I have to put my foot down and make him do some cleaning around the house. God bless us, this certainly wasnt what we imagined when we held them for the first time...sigh. [/QUOTE]
