[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 176272, member: 84"] Susie, Nichole has yet to send pics of Darrin, or even tell stepgfg easy child has a child because she didn't haver permission to do so by easy child. As for mother in law, she's listed in the phone book, and honestly, stepgfg should already know her address. And Nichole doesn't know easy child house address. Weird, I know, but easy child lives right down the alley, so Nichole's never given her address any thought. However I'm not so thrilled Nichole gave out our address so that stepgfg "could send us pics of Kayla and Alex." But there is no reason to be upset at Nichole. I am also listed, and stepgfg could gain that info anytime she wants without any real effort. easy child has given her permission for Nichole to send off pics of Darrin if she wants. In PCs words, "Let her see the family she walked out on and will never know." I told Nichole I'll believe we get pics of the grands when we open it in the mail. I've delt with that song and dance before. I don't want her getting her hopes up. Nichole has yet to even tell stepgfg that she is still living at home. And I told her that it might be best to keep that little fact to herself. It's possible she asked about me because she wants to drop the 3 kids on my doorstep. (I wouldn't put anything past her) If she asks to the answer will be No. I never thought I'd say that. But too many years have passed. Kayla and Alex are strangers to us now. And with the type of life they were living when stepgfg took off.........probably have more problems than I would know how to deal with. It's also possible she's in some sort of trouble there and needs a place to run to again. (also won't happen) Is hoping there is an inheritance from mother in law. (there isn't) Or that somehow she can sucker us into "helping poor lil her" again. (yeah, right) As far as the grands go......I find it suspicious we've been given no other info other than Kayla is fine and Alex is not "deformed" (that discription [B]still [/B]gets me). You'd think she'd be bragging on them a bit to catch Nichole up. But no. Nothing. Suspicious to me. And she gave Nichole a bit of a far out story about how she couldn't send pics of them via internet because every time she buys a camera it's not compatible with her laptop. (that she supposedly owns) It's possible she doesn't even have custody of either Kayla or Alex. And as awful as it is to say, that little fact wouldn't deter her from attempting to use them in some scheme of hers. I have warned Nichole this is possible. Which is why I had Nichole ask for pics of the grands. Even at 8 and 7 I'd be able to recognize them via pics. Kayla looked identical to easy child at 2 and Alex was a carbon copy of husband, so he ought to resemble Travis or husband. Star I would've let sleeping dogs lie.

Stepgfg just never seemed to grasp the concept. Stepgfg's response to receiving the pics of Kayla and Alex was that she'd assumed I'd thrown them all away.
