[QUOTE="Shari, post: 154724, member: 1848"] It will bring more drama, but personally, I think you need to be there. My gut feeling is that they will eventually see your grandson's need for a stable place to stay will outweigh the need to keep sibs together, and I think keeping yourself in the picture will keep the option of your grandson being with you alive. I have absolutely nothing to base this on other than just a feeling. Your difficult child will not like you being there, but that is her problem. I don't think telling her your thoughts and feelings openly was bad, and I don't think anyone else will see it as that way, either, so if she wants to have a tyrade in front of the mediator, etc, about you being honest about her shortcomings as a parent that have landed your grandson in foster care, let her. Keep your cool. It will just show everyone involved the true face of who's really who. Just my thoughts and ramblings. Whatever you decide, hugs and good luck. [/QUOTE]
