(19,186 posts)I completely understand, and commiserate with you. I have two grandchildren of my own, 7 and 5 years old, and I'm concerned about their welfare as well. Luckily my daughter has a Master's Degree in social work, and my son-in-law has a PhD in Psychology/Abnormal Behavior (specializing in children), so they're pretty well set.
I wish there were something I could do to soothe your, and your family's minds. One day at a time, brother. One day at a time, and remember, as bad as you think things are right now, there are others in the world with things much worse. Give thanks for the good things in your life, and one day you'll all look in your rear-view mirror and see that these trials in your lives made you stronger, and more empathetic and helping toward others. We all need someone to lean on, and we're always here for you.
We all love you brother.
