[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 343670"] You've gotten some good advice. When grandchildren are involved it sure can get confusing and heart breaking. If she is abusive to them and it becomes necessary for them to go to Foster Care, that is the logical consequences for her behavior. You might find out if that were to be the case and the children were to be removed; what your rights might be, and as you are able, provide some appropriate contact and assistance for them. You might offer your adult daughter good medical services...pay for her to see a psychiatrist and a therapist. If the medications are in question, don't be afraid to ask the Dr. about this or seek a second opinion. Offer to babysit if and [U][I][B]when you are able.[/B][/I][/U] Talk with her about how abusive behavior will[U][I][B] not[/B][/I][/U] be tolerated. But as best as you are able, try to detach emotionally from this turmoil. Your daughter is too old for you to be heavily involved with her destructive behaviors.
