[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 590867, member: 1233"] Please work to not feel bad about that glimmer of hope. You are being realistic. While a grandchild may be a blessing, you know this one will most probably have a LOT of problems due to his mother's choices. As she is going to have the baby, can you call the cops when you know she is high? Can you call child services to see if they will do anything to/with/for a mother who is using? Different states have different consequences for moms who use while pregnant. It might be good to know hwat your state will do and to maybe use that. I have always thought that mothers who use illegal drugs while pregnant should be locked up for the duration of the pregnancy. At that point the child's right to be born unpolluted and undamaged should be the priority, but it is a tough thing to legislate. I have no idea how you would legislate something like that, Know what I mean?? [/QUOTE]
