[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 758096, member: 18958"] You have had this guy figured out for years. Nothing you do or say or wish will have any influence on his flying right. To let yourself suffer even a little bit due to his inadequacy of character, is to suffer unecessarily. I know you know this. Beyond supplying the biological material to create a baby, his presence is superfluous, it seems. These are all of these, choices she is making:There are natural consequences to this. If there is no childcare, she can't work. Unless she solicits help with daycare. Same here. There is a pattern of behavior of your granddaughter that preceded her pregnancy and childbirth. Why go there to post-partum depression, for something that was present before, it seems to me? There are pluses. She is working. She seems bonded to the baby. Before the birth she had expressed irritation with the boyfriend. I think it comes down to what you want. If you would want to care for the baby 5 days a week, on a regular basis, if deep down this is what you would want, why let frustration with this deadbeat Dad stand in the way? If you don't want to have the obligation to do so, then that is straightforward too. Your granddaughter can either find other options or quit the job. Millions and millions of moms are in this situation, have been in this situation or will be in this situation. It all depends on what you want to do for you. [/QUOTE]
