Update from the story about MIL sending her daughter to us.
Heyy idk if anyone remembers my story about my MIL keep kicking out her kids. This last one she kicked out her daughter. I saw the comments about sending her back but her daughter & my husband don’t agree. Anyways his MIL has increased the price from $200 to $400 per month for daughter staying with us. So because of her daughter’s situation she decides to not come to our baby shower because “She doesn’t want problems & feels unwelcomed”. Tells my husband he can come pick up the gift she got though. Her daughter situation was happening for months & yet we still attended her 2 year olds bday party but all of a sudden she can’t attend the celebration of her granddaughter arrival (babyshower). At this point I’m irritated but trying not to stress because I’m already 9 months now. I’m not sure if I’m wrong or not but to not attend your grandchild’s babyshower because of issues that has nothing to do with your grandchild, kind of gives me vibes that she would take it out on our kids whenever she’s mad. She barely sees her grandson who is a year & some change now. I really don’t want that kind of relationship for my kids. All the negativity & not participating in stuff for them because of outside issues is not sitting right with me. I had already cut off my father because he was toxic to his kids mentally & physically. I don’t want that around my kids. Idk what to do about his mother. I spoke to my husband & he understands how I feel. He says its my decision on how to go about things. I kind of just want to take my family away from all of that drama. I don’t want my kids to keep suffering but at the same time I’m not sure if I’m wrong or not for wanting nothing to do with my MIL. If it was only about me & not my kids, Ofcourse I would put it to the side. They’re relationship has nothing to do with it but at this point I’m feeling like she doesn’t want a relationship with them because of us. I’ve already been in that situation with my own father & I honestly don’t want that for my kids or myself. Can I get anyones opinion?
Also her daughter is adding on stress. We transferred her to a school near us in hopes of helping her with her education but its been 3 weeks. She has a bf there now & is hiding hickeys. She’s gotten into 3 fights & 2 are over that said boyfriend. She has the living room in a mess everyday. Forgets to flush the toilet & clean up the bathroom after she uses it. She says she stays after school to get work done but I’m thinking its to just hang out with her bf. When else would she have the time to have hickeys. We have her location & she is going to school so I’m guessing these inappropriate activities are happening at school. She’s only 14 years old. Its kind of weird to me the way she is. When we spoke before she moved in with us, she was all about education. The person I’m seeing her now as is confusing. Idk if its a teen thing or not. I’m only 23 so its not too long ago I was a teen & I never experienced what she’s been doing. Anyways I’m uncomfortable with her here. I wish she could go back home with her mom & let her mom deal with that. I don’t want to be responsible for her getting pregnant or catching something while she’s under our roof. Yes I already spoke to her about safe sex & waiting. Not much else to do.
I swear everything was fine before all of this. For it to happen so late in my pregnancy or even at all baffles me.
Update: her mom sent her because they constantly argue & she’s been missing school. She says she can’t handle her so sends her to us. My husband is her oldest & she kicked him out at 16. Kicks her 2nd son out at 16 & now her daughter at 14.
