This isn't a BP as much as just need to get it all out of my brain....
DH's brother got a girl pregnant when they were seniors in high school. They did manage to graduate but neither has any college ed or very good job or social skills. What they do have is 4 kids, ages 6- almost 2 (with 2 and 3 born in feb and dec of the same year!). Anyway, BIL now has a job at wal-mart and SIL has been working for some pyramid scheme type place where she gets money based on how many people sign up to sell product. She travels a lot, leaving 4 kids with the ILs. SIL and BIL separated about a year ago and BIL moved back in his parents. Well, we just found out that SIL got kicked out of her apt because she hasn't been paying rent and totally trashed the place. So, she is moving in with a friend and the 4 kids are..you guessed it...moving in with the ILs. ILs love their grandkids and have done a lot as far taking care of their basic needs so far...but they are tired! They had 9 children on their own and 3 teenage boys are still living at home! MIL has mentioned to me several times how she loves the kids but just really needs a break. Well, now she is basically going back to being the mom of 4 young kids!
I guess I just don't know what on earth will happen to these poor kiddos! I don't know if SIL will ever get her act together and BIL can't exactly raise 4 kids by himself on wal-mart salary...Ugh. I'm so disgusted by them right now.
