Re: grandchild
It is in the best interest of the child to be raised in a loving and nurturing environment. Love is a commodity that may be shared among many individuals.
I assume that you presently have custody because the mother was unstable. And that her unstability adversly affected the child. You should determine whether the mother is better, and if yes, slowly reintroduce and work visitation back in with the mother.
