irresponsible woman

the grand daughter's mother is irresponsible. I want to choke her today. this is two days in a row without the back pack which has the all important school folder in it. This has caused great concern for the child. There will be no more going with mom during the school week. Too much drama. Her homework was not done, She was upset and crying and her mother brought her home instead of working it out and finishing out the evening how it was planned. I have explained to the grand daughter that if she makes plans to go with the mother to other mawmaw's she is supposed to stay there. She said I want to come home when Mama is mean to me. I asked her if mama was being mean to her tonight and she said she didn't want to live with me anymore because I didn't want her. I of course said that was not true, That I would always want her and that she lived here. She could not live with her mama right now because mama was trying to figure out what to do. That sometimes she had a place to live and sometimes she did not. Right now mama lives with other mawmaw and so she can go stay with her on the weekends. She says she wants her mama all the time. I told her she could not have her mama all the time. It wasn't going to work out like that. After a little while of her being mad and crying, she settled down and we were able to go t sleep. She is expecting to see her back pack at the door when she gets up and of course it is not here. Here homework will not be done for the first time this year. I will send the teacher the free homework page so she won';t get in trouble for not having it.
