[QUOTE="litbitblack, post: 706774, member: 12870"] Thank you so much for the replies, support and suggestions. It has helped so much- validating what I believe. I put up with so much from her before my grand daughter moved in with me just so she wouldn't keep her from me or remove her from me out of spite. I have had my grand daughter constantly since august of 2015. Texas law pretty much requires grand parents to have physical custody at least 6 months before you have grounds to file. And I was scared that if i did file she would temporarily get her :censored2: together then refuse all contact so I waited, Until she was in jail for a major charge. My daughter had a very close gang friend get shot that she pulled up to right afterwards-it happened at her job. This seems to be the thing that made her spiral quicker because I know she was involved in stuff prior to that. This all happened in may of 2015.
