[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 764962, member: 3305"] Yes NewLife4Me… I’m so glad she has good memories of her dad. As you all know being a drug addict with mental illness he did have his bad moments. But I just let granddaughter hold onto the way she remembers him. I just know granddaughter is going to grow into being an awesome young lady someday. My biggest concern for her as that she doesn’t fall into the same enabling trap that she has experienced with her other grandmother, her mom’s mom. As all 5 kids and their mother live with the other grandma. The other grandma could easily evict her daughter, the mom, and get CPS involved again to decide temporary guardianship. But she doesn’t. She stands down to her daughter even though she knows mom has been using drugs. It is her house and she does nothing but maintain the status quo. But back to my granddaughter…I am concerned that she will grow up to feel responsible her brothers and sister’s situations when they are older. She already is used like a second mama in the house. And she is very much a caregiver. Time will tell. LMS Ps…thank you KSM and KTmom. She really is such a blessing to me. [/QUOTE]
