Terribly worried about my daughter and grandbaby! *UPDATE Page 3*

You have my prayers, Kim. Letting her move back in was a really good choice. I hate to think of what could (and does) happen to children when they live in an environment like you describe. I hope your daughter will get some counseling so she can straighten out her life, for everyone's sake. You be sure to take care of yourself through all this stress, too. Sounds like you're the glue holding it all together. In fact, you may want to get some counseling for yourself, that's an awful lot of stress, and it's very difficult to think clearly when you are in the middle of the storm, especially when it involves your children. There are some wonderful compassionate people out there who can help you sort it out. God bless.

Sometimes moving back with the parents and having a child to care for can wake you up and realize that the life before was so bad and she'll try to get a better grip on life now with your help.I know it's very hard on you.I'm sorry your going through this.This is going to be a tough time for you so prayers are needed.I'll certainly pray for you and everyone living under your roof.

Its time to have a frank and open talk with your daughter - adult to adult. Explain that you will do all you can to help her but ultimately she has to take responsibility for her life and that of her baby and learn to fend for herself. I'm not saying give her a "sort yourself out or else" ultimation but she has to be made aware of the way her actions effect the rest of the family.

Its great that she knows she can come home to you but she is a grown up now.

Good for you Kim!

I have a friend who is going through a similar situation. Her daughter just had a baby and he was born premature due to her daughter using meth. He is hooked up to machines. Her daughter is running around with a drug dealer, and no matter what she does her daughter will not stop. She has temporary custody of the child, which just might turn permanent.
