[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 8607, member: 3305"] Hi Judi, Boy I can sure understand where you are coming from...I am pretty sure I would feel many of your same feelings if in your situation. I do think it good that difficult child has expressed that he does not want the responsibility or baby in his way right now. That is at least some honesty on his part though understandibly disturbing for you. In some ways, maybe this is a good thing, as it sounds like difficult child would be hostile or at the very least resentful if forced to do more than he is presently capable. Maybe try and hold on to the fact that you do have a really big heart and have so much to offer this child. Your relationship to your grandbaby is your gift. That says alot about you, in my opinion...and it is not dependent on what difficult child has to offer his baby at this time. I wish we could make up for other peoples lacktherein but difficult child may have to discover, on his own, all that he is missing out on and face his child with that admission at some point down the road. Baby can be okay regardless of what dad offers...and people do/can change. Difficult situation for sure. Glad you can talk about it. lovemysons ps...I'm so glad to hear the baby's mom IS so capable and doing so many good things for herself and her children. Hope grandbaby is doing better now too.
