Children living in it

Quote From: ohmygosh1

PEOPLE LIKE THIS AND OTHER DISORDERS DON'T REALIZE THEY HAVE A PROBLEM...THEREFORE THEY DON'T THINK THEY NEED HELP. THEY'LL SAY ANYTHING, EVEN ARGUE WITH SOMEONE, TO NOT BE BOTHERED BY PEOPLE. IF THEY GET HELP AND CONTINUE STAY WITH IT, IT WILL WORK OUT...BUT THEY HAVE TO BE WILLING AND WANTING HELP. ANY CHILD LIVING IN CONDITIONS LIKE THIS IS TERRIBLE...AND I'M BEING KIND HERE. INTERVENTION IS NEEDED IN THESE CASES, BUT I'M NOT THE ONE THAT DECIDES WHAT KIND OF INTERVENTION. SOMETIMES, TEARING A FAMILY APART CAN DO HARM...REBUILDING THE FAMILY UNIT IS BETTER. BUT AGAIN, THIS TAKES THE PROPER HELP DIAGNOSED FOR THE PROBLEM.

I agree!  My daughter does not seem to think it's 'so bad' for her son...especially since I redid his room.  But even when I point out the rest of the house...she just rolls her eyes and calls me a "minimalist", a "perfectionist", a "neat freak", all kinds of names.  I don't care what she calls me...face the facts!  I have threatened her again.  I hate to see my grandson yanked from his home and put in foster care (some of those homes aren't so great either!) but it's her son or hoarding...can't have both.  She seems to be trying but talk about SLOW!  All she does is churn the piles!  I'm gonna have to get in there and force her to deal with it properly or call CPS again.  She won't go to therapy because of her job in the Air Force.  Talk about a rock and a hard place!

 It's very annoying.  It's also difficult to read. 

I am sure that everyone would appreciate it if you would please turm off your caps lock and stop screaming at us. 

Thank you.
