My unconditional love for my daughter and three of her children has achieved nothing. She is now asking her daughter and her partner for money although she has a reasonable income. I think all her accusations were just an attempt to get money out of me too but even if I could afford it I would not enable her to buy more drugs. She has started to insist that the two boys at home (28 and 21) pay her some board money. I think they should (one is unemployed but gives her all his JSA, the other is at college but has a weekend job and gives her half). I am hoping they will finally see that she has a serious addiction problem, as her eldest daughter has.
I am afraid addicts have no conscience - they will neglect their children, beg,borrow and steal from their family to buy their drug of choice.
My only hope is that she will reach rock bottom and be hospitalised - otherwise she is going to die or end up in a psychiatric ward or prison.
If she shows the slightest desire to contact me, I will welcome it, but I can't ever give her money now I know what she does with it, so she will still be very angry with me.
