[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 757752, member: 18958"] Is there any potential to negotiate with your daughter? Clearly she does not want to be a mother. I recognize the incentive for her is likely to be welfare payments, and this would be very, very sad, for these kids who need parenting. Are there funds to get a family law attorney? If these children are in danger I know they will be pulled, sooner or later. Perhaps you can ask around who is a good family law attorney who will tell you what to document, what to do, how to prepare and how to frame all of this. Sooner or later this will all crash to the ground, and I would guess sooner. Sadly, your daughter may go to jail, find another man who doesn't want kids, or whatever, this does not sound like a sustainable situation, and horrible for these children. There are mothers here who say to call CPS every single time, these children may be in danger, neglected or abused. I can't speak to that. But I do believe that you will be served, and the children too, by making a plan. I like what Busy wrote. Commiting to yourself what you want to do and will do, and working towards it. Perhaps even jointly with others, such as your sister and the baby's paternal grandma. I am so, so sorry you are dealing with this. Coronavirus is making so much so, so hard. S [/QUOTE]
