[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 670369, member: 19522"] Hi Penny, I am so sorry for all of this, it hits very close to home, having three grands from my daughter and her boyfriend. We have all been through the works. I know how terrible it feels, our grandchildren did not ask to be born into this. I know about making that tough call too (If that is the same call I had to make a couple times, if you know what I am talking about). But you know, that call could just be the one you needed to make, or need to if we are not talking about the same thing. Especially when your grandchild is a baby, because the folks out there pay more attention to babies. There are services to help young mothers and fathers, and social workers to check up on the baby. Making that call can start setting that up. Very important. If they think something is amiss, they require family counseling and can do drug testing. It is all so new for you, being a Grandmother. Please take care of yourself and take some time to breath. This can be so very difficult. It is important for you to keep your strength up, and figure out where you stand in all of this. We tried and tried to help. We found through the ups and downs and sideways of it, that the babies are their parents responsibility, the sooner they learned how to be parents, the better. Hang in there Penny. Saying prayers for you and the family. (((HUGS))) [/QUOTE]
