[QUOTE="End of our rope, post: 616805, member: 17544"] Let's just say that our 31 year old daughter has stolen our future and call it that. There is no chance that she has missed an opportunity to steal from us. She has 2 great kids that are 10 and 6. We have been as much parents to them as grandparents. We found out just before the holidays that she had once again stolen credit cards and racked up 10K worth of charges. When the landlord evicted her we just hired a mover packed her up and moved her things into a storage building and her and the kids into our house. Yes Yes I found this site to late to find out that everything we are doing is wrong. My wife's sister has given her an opportunity to go to school and get a job so she can support herself and her kids but past behavior does not support this being a success. We are more than ready to detach from her but not from our gkids. They are great. While she can't keep from stealing from us she is oddly a good mom. Oklahoma does not recognize any gparents rights unless signed away by my daughter and the father. We have as a couple been so fortunate in so many ways but she has put in jeopardy our futures. It will take years of work to recoup the money she has stolen and cost us. That however pales to the emotional abuse we have suffered because of this. Gift from God or Curse from God? [/QUOTE]
