[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 765711, member: 3305"] Then I just said, “Someday you'll realize your own self worth. And even though you really are handsome, you'll realize that it's what's on the inside of your mind and heart that matters most.” And grandson you truly are a good person. I see you with your brothers and sisters and how you talk about your other grandmother and know what a beautiful heart you have.” “You're going to go far in life. It's just taking a little while longer for you to get your start. Be patient. Your time is coming.” Grandson has not had a good education due to his mother’s neglect. My husband and I are trying to educate him in little ways along the way. Math skills, history, politics, current events etc. Next year, when he turns 18, we plan on him coming to live with us and my husband taking him under his wing with work. I will teach him home chores, which he already knows are expected at our house when he comes to visit us. I also teach him how to cook. I don’t want to have a pity party for him as I don’t want him to get victim mentality. I just want to lift him up and help him realize his own value. [/QUOTE]
