How Can I Help My Six Year Old Grandchild?
22 Answers
My level little grand daughter is distressed by all the shouting at home between her mummy (my daughter) and her latest live-in partner. I won't go into the complexities of their disastrous relationship but I am extremely worried about the effect on this innocent little girl, who is frequently woken up at night by the vicious shouting and foul language that ensues. Sometimes the partner even wakes her to tell her how bad her mummy is! She pleads with me not to say anything because she has been warned not to tell me.
What can I do? Do I simply remain a silent confidante or can I be proactive without getting my grand daughter into trouble? My daughter already complains that her daughter has no respect for her. She needs to understand respect needs to be earned and isn't anyone's by right.

but i think it's only been trialed up here in the north west, i would just barge straight in there and tell your daughter you fear for her and her child and that you don't want the police knocking on your door one morning telling you she's been found dead along with her child, don't risk it and don't hold back, the bloke sounds like a thug and a bully and you would never live with yourself if you let i go.

I'be told my daughter many times that she needs to get rid of this idiot. She agrees then changes her mind. She's told me herself that many of the rows are because of her partner getting cross with her daughter. She agrees it's damaging to her but when push comes to shove she doesn't want to be left alone!
My grand daughter is with me now. Maybe 'talking in her sleep' is a good idea.!
My main worries are: losing the trust of my grand daughter and risking not being allowed to see her.

Tups I wasn't much older than your grandaughter when I had a secret, I eventually confided in a neighbour who I knew would spill the beans even though I begged her not too, your poor grandaughter probably wants you to stop the arguing, her mums not doing what she should so she's turning to the next person she feels will.
I agree with the others, tackle your daughter, hopefully she'll realise how selfish she's being when she knows others are aware of the problems.
Good luck to you and your grandaughter x
