[QUOTE="Gone, post: 640429"] I would only turn her in if my GS was in the car You are right it is a tentative situation and she could end up feeling her Mum has turned into a police officer or social worker! lol Saying that there ARE concerns and I cannot pretent to MYSELF at least or SS that there AREN'T any!! I will be happy not to mention her drinking or cannabis use but I will be watching her for my GS's sake! I can do it as gently and discreetly as possible though although she always ''guesses it was me'' anyway but my worry is she kicks me out of her house and therefore my GS is left unprotected.. So it IS a dilemma for me but my GS's SAFETY comes first at all times I will work with her though as we are meant to be a team as a family and I did used to have him at mine to give her a 'break' which she was grateful for and I won't PUSH it , just gently suggest it IF I feel the time is right as she feels ''social services are trying to take my kid'' but she ALSO feels ''My MUM is trying to take my kid'' which is NOT true - I would just RATHER he was with FAMILY rather than in foster care with a STRANGER but because she is annoyed with me for shopping her in the past she would RATHER he was a stranger out of spite and to make me suffer for my sins! lol I am trying to be the responsible adult here , until she is well enough to be It is EARLY days , she thinks coz she has stopped drinking now everything is going to be FINE but in reality I think there will be times where she is GLAD to have a break from little man as she is still unwell MY HARD PART is to keep MYSELF well in all this , so have decided to attend a meeting for relatives once a week for the support as I know things are hard for my difficult child but sometimes HER illness makes ME ill and that is not good ( or FAIR ) as I have my own self / wellbeing to think about as well as my GS's so if I get ill in it all I am no good to / for HIM SS EXPECT me to step in at all times though and monitor the situation for them and does ANYONE UNDERSTAND what a HARD role that is???????? :angry-very: [/QUOTE]
