[QUOTE="Lonelylady, post: 746875, member: 22664"] Thank you for your advise and I know that you are right. I wish I could claim my life. The 12 year old is on the autistic spectrum. He was retested last week and he is at a second grade level and needs constant care. The 16 yr old is a boy and I am happy to say he stays very busy in sports and school. He doesn't give me any trouble but at the same time he seems to have little time for a younger brother with disabilities. I love these boys as if they were by own having them since birth. I kept thinking that as we got older she would start helping. Hoping that they would form some type of bond. The only true bond she has is getting everything she can from me. I am so upset today. She called me and ask me to pray for her cause her bones are hurting. The 12 yr old has been into everything today, I would love to just rest a minute. He can't help he was born with this and he is also 90% blind in one eye. He would love to have a friend but most kids just bully him. I am in way over my head. I use to be able to go to the school and fight for him for his rights etc. Now it has become so exhausting and to see what he goes through is so heartbreaking. On top of that I stay so angry at her because she has no time for him. According to her he is to hard to keep an eye on. This situation just keeps repeating itself. I am sorry to just ramble on.... Your daughter is very selfish to keep you from your grandchildren. That is so cruel and one day she will be very sorry if she doesn't wise up. My mother passed away last year and no one can take a mother's place. I really hope your daughter realizes this soon and you can enjoy being a grandmother. I would give anything to be able to be a grandmother. Stay strong and live your life enjoy and savor every minute of it. I wish I knew how to do what you are doing. Please any time you have a moment I appreciate hearing from you. [/QUOTE]
