He had a squeeze on the side, but that's over with. He is just now getting over his alcohol issues. Ha...that reminds me...my sister told me to buy him a case of beer and let nature run its course!

The only thing he does now that gives me pause as to possible criminal behavior is that he steps out of the garage apt. to use the phone. Yes, I have already priced listening devices. The passive, legal ones.



That's what my wife said, sort of...have chicks start hitting his myspace account.

I assume the "stepping out" to make a phone call is apparent to your daughter. Sometime when he is sleeping or int he bathroom have her get the "incoming calls" and "outgoing calls" list.. if she doesn't feel safe doing that, if her name is on the cell phone bill at all have her pull the account online...

In all honesty though, based on what you have described I would kick him out, permanently. It might be hard on your daughter and grandchildren for a bit but they will be so much better off in the long run... It sounds as though your daughter might have a bit of a low self-esteem to be content to stay with such a looser or is depressed or possibly both. To stay with a reject simply because he is the biological father is the oldest excuse in the book... I believe kids are better off seeing a strong mom stand up to a jerk like that and kick him out, she is certainly doing her kids no favors keeping him around...

Well...while I'm at work and/or on BP (hahaha), he plays video games I guess. He's about to start some retail job. That's about it.

Christmas for him is the Earned Income Tax Credit. And I am not kidding.

I'm in Ryn's corner on this one. Believe me when I tell you that your daughter will never be happy with this guy, even if she says she is. Her life will be much better without him. I've been in a relationship with a horrible, abusive guy, and I tried to trick myself into thinking that I loved him when in fact I was miserable and tired of being treated like dirt. Your daughter will be get over him and move on. A little therapy might be in order for her if she thinks she needs this loser.

To expand on that, she needs help breaking that cycle of picking the wrong guys. To incude increasing her self esteem and sense of self worth(as mentioned by Ryn), and concerning herself with the quality of life of her kids.
