[QUOTE="BusynMember1, post: 750914, member: 23706"] If she fails it will be 100 percent her fault. She is 26. She can do it. Didn't she lose her driver's license? Without a license AND insurance why would anyone let her drive? She is an alcoholic? The honest truth is you don't know if she is drinking, pregnant or not. You would LIKE to think she is sober, of course, and YOU and I would never drink while pregnant. I know how this goes. All you know is that she isn't drinking around you. Kay smoked pot and maybe drank while pregnant, but she was smart enough not to let us see. Somebody eventually told us after Jaden was born. Broke our hearts. My grandson has symptoms of a child who might be affected by alcohol. Thinking about it is making my head hurt. I would not believe she was trying unless a year of good stuff went by and she was independent. I made the mistake of seeing one good month when Kay wanted something from us and my heart sang that she was on the right path. It is easy to fool ourselves. She hasn't changed. I hope your daughter is different than Kay. I really do. But she sounds a lot like Kay. One thing. You have no control over your parents. They enabled your brother. They may do it to your daughter. You can't control what other adults do, not your parents or daughter. Don't get involved. It will only make your path harder if you fight with your parents. They are all over 18. I can so relate. God bless. [/QUOTE]
