[QUOTE="ChickPea, post: 750373, member: 24089"] I have my daughter's child here with us, we have guardianship. He is 8 months old. She was not ready for a child, and the alleged father (still not filed for paternity) was verbally/physically abusive to her, she felt he was safest here. Of course, in her fantasy brain she figured she would shape up her life and care for her child 100% at this point. Reality is she doesn't. She can't. She's homeless, flopping on a grown man's couch and can barely hold a job down (hasn't been able to her entire adult life). The other day she got wasted, then called in to work for mental health reasons, then decided to show up here. We had just returned from a little getaway (me, hubby, grandbaby). I know she was depressed about the fact that she wasn't able to provide that getaway for her child. So she came over here and does what she always does - [B]starts crap with us to make us miserable[/B]. After stirring the pot long enough to make things unbearable she said she was "leaving with her child." No driver's license, not her car, has nothing for him, but she's leaving. With the baby. I told her that was irresponsible and she would be causing undue stress. She kept saying that it's HER baby, HER baby, and she's done being told when she can see HER baby. We gave her 5 minutes to leave. LSS - she sat outside our house on the phone (supposedly with police). She said she was going to tell them that my husband threatened her (which he didn't), and that we were holding her child hostage. We wait. Nothing. She leaves saying she's going to buy him car seat, pampers and playpen for their life together. Meanwhile husband's dad is being admitted to the hospital in need of a transfusion. Hour later she texts that she wants to just come to the house and shower. What?! All this to say I AM SO SICK OF HER!!!!! Later that night she apologizes, but people I'm so tired of this being my normal. This is not what normal life is. This is not what I wanted my home to be. It's slowly killing me, you know? [/QUOTE]
