My granddaughter's mother was trying to convince her state ordered parenting class instructor that she is indeed a good parent by telling her that she assigns a seven year old chores. Those chores include doing the family laundry by herself, unsupervised, and emptying all the ashtrays. For some unknown reason, the instructor was not impressed. LMFAO!
I was figuring this was one of the minor problems with 'mommy'. If you want to talk about it, we'll listen. If you want to keep it private, we'll respect that.
Sorry you have to go through another "mother thing" in your life. But I'm glad you are older and more self-powered to handle this one. Sorry for Lis, but she is luckier than she knows to have you. You lived through mom thing one. Just help her live through mom thing 2.
And if telling helps, do what you do best----tell the story!
You were right all along to "stay put" and let that woman hang herself with the lies she weaved.
I am so sorry for Lissa - it brakes my heart to think of her having to do what she was asked to do. I bloody hope that with the little info you have shared on here, knowing that is plenty more, that those involved will FINALLY step in a do what is right for her -- be in your care until her mother, if she is ever able to, can be the parent Lissa deserves.
What is happening to Alissa's brother? I know he is not under your care but always have him in mind when you talk about what is going on. I hope he is staying with his father? Is that a good hope?

oh my godot, what a numpty. That said, at least she is making you look like Mrs Brady.
Seriously.....wtf. At least she doesn't make her clean the bong, which she evidently hit before this meeting!
LMAO! Call me Carol. Did Alice make pie?
emptying ash trays and doing laundry....um yeah....
Laundry and emptying the ashtrays ..... hmmmm ... sounds like you don't have to say anything, just let "clueless" do say it all the for you.
Oh, there's SOOOOO much more, but, I wonder how much you guys want to hear.
I want to hear it all...EMPTY ASHTRAYS! Do tell.

LMAO at Bubble and Daphne's comments!
Hang in there.
our lissa emptying ashtrays and doing the laundry? that makes me very unhappy! :-(
Everything about her life at home breaks my heart.
Gabe is well and happy. His daddy brought him over to see me last night.
Dear DD,
Spill it! (Not the ashstrays.)
Tell us more; get it off your head and chest. Your home team here is always behind you, cheering you onward and upward.
