[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 739463, member: 18516"] Hi L2BF, I'm getting caught up on some threads today. I think you have been given wonderful advice by the others and I agree that your daughter that is still at home needs to be your top priority. It's never easy when a grandchild is involved. Perhaps you can keep the communication open with your daughter. Of course with strong firm boundaries in place. You might consider seeing if she would be willing to meet you in a public/neutral place so you could see your grandchild. There is nothing wrong with giving your grandchild gifts for birthday's and Christmas. I would caution against giving money or anything of real value. There are ways to keep communication open without becoming a door mat. We always have to guard our hearts as best we can. You can only do what you can live with. One thing to always remember, your grandchild is not your responsibility. I know it can go against the mommy in us to want to swoop in and make everything okay but in doing that we risk our own happiness and sanity. ((HUGS)) [/QUOTE]
