[QUOTE="JaneBetty, post: 699758, member: 20814"] McDonna, thank you for your response. I'm grappling with the advice here. It's easy to make the decision to not open our home back up to our daughter, but it makes me feel sick to imagine doing it. My husband is supportive, and is very concerned that I fear for my safety around her. Early last week, she sent a text message asking me to bring a car key to her as she had locked herself out of her car (again). I did not respond to her text, nor did I arrange for a key to be brought to her because I did not want her to be in any more trouble than she already was under the temporary restraining order. My husband was away on a fishing trip, so he wasn't there for advice. I gotta tell you, not bringing a spare key out to her was very difficult. I paced around the house fretting about it and felt just awful and guilty. My question is this: other than refusing to allow her to live here, what other things do we have to consider when she is released from the hospital? We have a little time to make some decisions as the restraining order is in effect for another month. [/QUOTE]
