[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 389143, member: 1233"] You are one heck of an aawesome Warrior Grandma! I hope that katie gets her wakeup call at the shelter and does what she needs to do to be the mother she is supposed to be. Not going to hold my breath. I am also hoping that having M be with the men and separate from katie and the kids will let katie see how much better off she could be without him and how much his presence, behavior, handicaps and abuse are hurting her children. in my opinion he does NOT love those kids because if he truly did love them there would NEVER have been that photo of Kayla and Katie would not have that victim air about her. He also would be working to make sure they had food and shelter, not wasting time and money on movie rental, mcdonalds and whatever else. that just isn't love in my book. Will CPS know that there is family when they get involved? I don't really think it is an "if" situation, not deep down. I hope it isn't needed, but chances are it will be the only way the kids get any of the stability, etc... that they need. Not to mention the other help for the disabilities and mental illness. Will Katie tell them that your family exists or will she try to hide it by not telling CPS to contact you or the girls? Will the kids ask to come to you if they are questioned by a social worker? I just worry that CPS will get involved and the kids will be in foster care with different families before you even know that it has happened. It would be so traumatic and devastating to the children if that happened, even for just a night. You are absolutely on the right track with all you are doing. In no way should you be trying to financially help katie and the kids, not with your own situation being so precarious. You have GOT to take some time to focus so you can pass your exam and get licensed. You worked too hard to let anything stop you now. It just might be the very best thing that could EVER happen to the kids if they were placed in your custody. For ALL of them. But I doubt it would be the best thing for YOU. You would adjust, adapt and find a way to enjoy life, but it would be very hard on you. [/QUOTE]
