how to kill a grandad?

monday. court hearing .


"i want to see my children every day"

"my dad, he is 82, he has parkinsons, he hasnt seen his grandchildren for two years"

thursday.
girls with M. M calls - N says he wants girls to go to his flat to call grandad it is his birthday.

ok, if they want to.
L says no she is busy, they at the museum, they dont want to leave. she will see him tomorrow, as agreed.

I tell M - tell N - I am happy to call his dad tonight with the girls. we can wish him happy birthday.

M says: N says No! "it will kill him" "don't you understand, he doesnt know that she has taken away my kids..."

a month previously - my dad calls me (74 year old, had a stroke)
- N has called he wants to know why you wont let him see the children....

it isn't quite true - they are seeing him. long story.

but is it age? over 80 you might kill someone with a phone call telling the truth?
if you can't tell your own family the truth - do you ever believe it yourself?

How low is he going to get??
I would be seriously tempted to do a template letter stating everything that is going on and the reasons why your doing it. To all members of yours and his family. Might be better checking with the solicitor first to be on the safe side. That way he can't pull anymore of the family card.

And you killing off his dad?? What a load of bull by product.
You never know but telling his family they might be able to pressure him in leaving you alone.

But those are my ideas and i can be completely wrong but just wanted to say be strong and don't let the fcuker get to you.

This episode fits N's usual pattern of over-emotional irrationality. I would be tempted to do as little as possible until this particular fixation fades. His lack of ability to communicate with his family isn't your problem (or the kids'). N's father hasn't exactly rushed over to visit them since his wife died (as it used to be her health that prevented them from traveling).
Chin up, girl.
