    Are you ok Mooloo?

    Yes I am ok.
    Just taken a few days out when I got the opportunity.
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    Oh Gawd, not what you needed, having DS and GF there, but agree it's just as well to get them away from the family from hell :(

    Why is this not good? Mooloo can keep them on the straight and narrow and they get to see their boys in her home.
    I'm confused, unless the financial strain is just too great.

    They are adults, Mooloo will wear herself out trying to get them to turn themselves around, they will bring the "family from hell" back into her life, and will drain away Mooloo's assets - and muck up the home that she has worked so hard to make for herself and dgd. Looks as if history is about to repeat itself unless Mooloo can be a lot harder and firmer than she has been in thepast. :-(

    Yes, thanks.
    I thought the family from hell were connected with one of Mooloo twin daughters.she won't want DGD around them.
    hopefully this will only be short term then.

    History repeats itself unfortunately a lot.
    Yes family from hell was why twins moved away several years ago. Same family next level of children/ young adults have grown up to be as bad as their elders and are causing havoc once more. DS and GF have refused the drugs and now they are being physically attacked and verbally threatened etc and as said family are 5 doors away from DS it is a huge problem.

    Financially I am not too bad, been a good summer in the shop, but emotionally it is a little more difficult.
    When Dgd returns from her Mum etc we will need to have sorted some things out, but at the moment we are waiting for the police and the housing to see if they can be moved.
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    They will only drain away her assets if she lets that happen.

    It’s her life and her choice. Mooloo. Tell them to get their mp or local councillor involved as well.

    Will having them there in your house have an impact on DGD's situation?

    Since they are known to social services and have had their own children removed because of concerns?

    I sincerely wish life was more straightforward for Mooloo and especially DGD.

    Social Services have no concerns about Dgd.
    They are only stopping temporarily and Dgd is not even there.
