It sounds like your daughter may need a personal family intervention. That is not a good environment for the children and they need their mother like all small children do. It might be time for you as a grandmother to step in and talk to her about her behavior and to figure out what is best for the kids because they are growing and need an available mom. She is important to the family and a family pow wow might help fix some of the problems you are guys are having.

First off, I feel really sorry for those children. No child needs to put up with that kind of life. Secondly, it sounds as if your daughter needs some parenting classes and maybe even a rude awakening that her children could be taken away from her. Try talking to her about her feelings. Sounds like she is very frustrated and taking it out on the kids.

I feel so bad for those kids. She brought them into this world & now she has pretty much abandoned them.

Someone (family intervention) needs to tell her she is being selfish & irresponsible & that she needs to grow up & take some responsibility & take care of the kids that she brought into this world. Those kids need her & want her to be there for them. Those kids cannot fend for them selves. She needs to know how the kids feel about her not being there.

If the kids every say or ask why is mommy never around tell them they need to ask their mother that. Maybe if she hears from the kids how much they want her & need her there & that they want to know why she's never there, she will realize what she is doing to them.

Where is the father? Could you or are you interested in trying to take custody of them? If you are or have considered taking custody of them tell her you are going to file for custody. Someone needs to flat out tell her how selfish & irresponsible she is being & that she needs to grow up & be there for her kids & take care of them. I hope for the kids sake that she will come around cause a child needs their mother.

Tell her it's time to mother up or your gonna turn her over to CPS for neglect. Ask her if she feels she is a good mother. And if she realizes or cares what happens to children who have nobody to help guide them through life.

Do she live with you and if she do get up before her and go over to a relative house and sit how long you want to, and don't let her know where you are. That will teach her a lesson.

If she doesn't make smart choices I'm afaird they have to live with another family
