What can I do. Long story, when my Granson was 6months my sons partner started behaving very oddly. My son worked away from home on a month away a month home basis. Here are some of the things that happened.
She said he wasn’t in the country he said he was. He was supposedly according to her 6 thousand miles away had a different name and a different group of friends. She thought that messages were being sent via her iPad and that it was listening to her. She covered up all the LED displays on the cooker washing machine etc. Covered the central heating controls. Even at a later date thought messages were coming through the dogs chip. One day I dropped my son of and she had covered the tv with one of the baby’s blankets. We phoned everyone we could and her doctor told us she didn’t have time to talk to us and that my sons ex would have to go to the gp herself and ask for help. This was almost 6 years ago. Since then she has almost destroyed my son. He adores his little boy and is very good dad. She uses him as a weapon. She has opened loads of catalogues is my sons name incurring, debt in my sons name. She stole his bank card took the details and ordered stuff online. She never pays for anything. The final straw came when she went on dating web sites stating explicitly what she wanted. A girl we didn’t know got in touch to say ex was having an affair with her fiancé. She then had a baby three months ago to another man who doesn’t seem to be around. She had two children by another man when my son met her. She won’t leave my sons house lies and cheats saying shes been to see rental properties and hasn’t been at all. Yesterday my son discovered the tv covered with a blanket just as it was after his child was born years before. I am sick of worrying and totally exhausted by it all. She won’t talk to us and does everything in her power to stop us seeing our grandchild. I honestly don’t know where to turn. Her mums an alcoholic her dad passed away years ago. The rest of her family are totally disfunctional. They live quite a distance away this is all so very different to what we thought our retirement years would be. Who can we get help from In Scotland. I could write a thousand other things that have happened. Sorry for the long post.

I'd contact social services and say you have concerns for the child's wellbeing and ask them to investigate they might put a child protection order in place.

We have tried that route. Social worker was appalling. Said our GS seemed happy and that everyone’s level of cleanliness was subjective. This despite dog mess on the floor with my GS clothes lying on top of it. One of the SW told my son to quit his job and get a lawyer. So better that my son looses his house and try’s to get legal aid which is highly unlikely. Still at a loss seems that none of the services, medical, police or social care. Just want the problem off their desks. I’m totally done with this.
