Anybody else raising their grandkids?

Going through it also Chas. Spent a pile of money to get custody from the crack addict father and crazy, (as in mentally disturbed), daughter of ours. The grandkids are now damaged goods because of their upbringing. It's not their fault but they are not willing to change and they are a handful. We will get through it all and they will have a better life in the longrun, (hopefully), but it is taking it's toll on us as well. My wife is 12 years older than me and is retired, she has yet to be able to enjoy the retirement she had envisioned.
