My dd and her boyfriend had a baby born 9 weeks ago.I dont really know his mum,she is an alcoholic and lives in a bedsit in a house,with other alcoholics and weed smoking people,she smokes cigarettes.

I invited her and her mother into my home to visit the baby,i picked them up in my car,gave them tea and cake and took them home again,her mother,the babys great grandmother is a lovely woman.

The thing is his mum,keeps asking to see the baby,my daughter agreed that they would meet at the great grandmothers house,as she doesnt want to go to the bedsit,she has been several times now.

The other day at 9pm the phone rang and it was his mother yelling and demanding that my dd bring the baby to her now,and that she has a right to see him,she then ranted how i didnt make her feel welcome,i couldnt believe it,i really put myself out and chatted away,so ive told them she is not welcome in my home anymore.

Tbh im a bit scared of her,she has been in jail for stabbing her ex husband and she fights men when she is drunk,and gets arrested.

sorry this is long winded but i feel i need to get the story over,the thing is she now going to rent a house,about her 10th,and said to my daughter,you can come round more now as i wont be in the bedsit,my daughter is getting upset about this.she also said she wants the baby for 3 hours a week,her son told her he is too young yet,for her to have him,and she punched him in the face.

Does anyone know if she has any rights to see the baby,i told my dd i didnt think she has,with her track record,my dd doesnt really like going down there,but she does to keep the peace,i think its so unfair putting all this pressure on her,and her worrying for the safety of her baby.

Erm no she has no rights at all, your dd's bf would be well justified in never speaking to her again. I would not let any baby within a mile tbh.

If she keeps calling get her number blocked, if she harasses inform the police. Tell your dd to refuse to have any contact, she is obviously dangerous and unhinged. If she can punch her own ds in the face, stab people, then quite frankly she shouldn't be around anyone, nevermind babies.
