How Do I Help My Grandkids While They Live With My Alcoholic Daughter?

from The Wandering Therapist Sessions · host Love Strong

Question From Sharon: "How do I deal with an adult alcoholic daughter who I rent the house next door, she's raising my 8 yr old granddaughter and my three-year-old autistic grandson. I know her plate is full and I help as I can with boundaries in place. She wants her space and privacy but I worry about the kids. She is also dealing with an unstable soon-to-be ex-husband. My granddaughter comes to play each week as I'm newly retired. How can I best love her while not enabling her? She goes to 2 counselors, one for alcoholism."
