oh wow. I'm sorry. How old is she? I don't know what advice to give you.. Hmmm if you can mail the kids ups I'll babysit them. :laughing: I love kids :love:
 
Maybe she is a little frustrated because she feels like she is doing it ALL and by herself. If Mike is homeless I'm sure he doesn't get to keep the kids overnight(except when he's at your house)and she may be feeling like she needs a break.

Of course I don't know you, Mike, and DIL and/or the situation. Just speculating on why she has been adamant about Mike keeping their children.

Where does Mike stay when he isn't at your house? Does he have a sibling who would be willing to let him and his children spend a few days there?

I hope your grandbaby is doing well. I can imagine how frightening that situation was for everyone.
