[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 509384, member: 1514"] Im sorry it took me a bit to answer you because I read your post, had to think about it before I answered it. Oh and welcome to our little corner of the universe by the way. I am the mother of three boys and I simply cannot imagine how our family would would handle this situation. Oh we have dealt with more than our fair share of difficult child behavior and my boys have helped each other out and had things done to one and other by the youngest which is our biggest difficult child but I really cannot imagine what would happen if any of them if your situation happened. At one point we thought my youngest's baby's momma was attempting to put the moves on my middle son but he shut her down so quick it wasnt funny. She was a cheater though from the word go however but we couldnt get my son to see it. None of my boys would have ever done that to each other no matter what the girl would do...thats just the simple matter of the fact. You are going to be in a horrible position because no matter what, this baby will be your grandchild. Doesnt much matter if its by your difficult child or your son that was cheated on but I think it will make a difference in how you think about things. How on earth can it not? If the girl gets dumped by her husband, I doubt your difficult child will have the ability to get together with her at his age and support her. Chances are very high she ends up alone to raise the baby and moves on. That will probably make it hard for you to have a real relationship with the baby. I would be very leery about connecting with this baby until you see how things are going to work out because having a grandchild ripped from your life is a very difficult thing after you have become attached to it.
