We are going to be

[JanB]

Great Grandparents

Bit underwhelmed, really, as we haven't seen or heard from that particular granddaughter for 8 years.

Only found out by accident

Best start knitting congratulations

[meriad]

well congratulations - I think?

[JanB]

She's 17 and been in this relationship since October . Baby due September

She always was a handful, even when younger. The last time we were in contact was when we visited England, 9 years ago.

Ho heck Jan not good

[JanB]

You're right there Saundra

Not heard from her dad either

And the young man in question looks a bit………………...

[Kaz]

That's awfully young - I was 19 and married when Chris was born, but it was all a bit overwhelming! I wish her well Jan, and hope she'll get the support she will need xxx

[JanB]

Not so sure she will Kaz, not from her mother anyway. Not unless she's changed an awful lot. She was in and out of rehab for drink and drugs. I won't go into it too much, but although I thought the world of her, when the drugs took over, she became evil. And things became rather nasty after the divorce too. Middle son had custody of both children - obviously - but she jut wouldn't let go and used the children as pawns in getting what she wanted. We helped out financially, as did his mum, because he couldn't work, as the youngest hadn't started school.


A very long and very unpleasant story, which I won't bore you with. I'm hoping both children have grown up as well as they can, but we've not heard from either them or middle son. Unless I ring, he won't bother
