Things get complicated when there is a second family. My ex son in law left my daughter and their three kiddies and promptly moved in with his new partner, she was pregnant within weeks and had a baby last year. She is due to have another baby in April this year and has already got three kiddies from a previous relationship. At Christmas (when he should have had my grandkiddies) he told my daughter he couldn't have them stay with him and new partner (wouldn't give any reason) and when my daughter asked him to say where they would be staying he got really irate and abusive with her. In the end she told him they would not be going unless he told her where they would be staying - he refused to say so they didn't go - he lives 300 miles away so it isn't just a day visit. His new partner has posted on her Facebook page about their lovely family and 'miracle' baby etc etc (not that I have seen it but daughter was told by a mutual friend) and I do wonder if it is her decision not to have the children stay with them - she would have a total of six children to look after ranging from 13 to under one year old plus being pregnant herself too.
Mattress causing back pain - or is it me getting old?? Advice please.
