Let me get this straight - your son in law left his pregnant wife, your daughter to go live with another woman. He now wants to come back and you are actually entertaining this possibility? I don't see how this is a concern for you or your daughter. Neither one of you should have anything to do with what should be her former husband and your former son in law. You and your daughter and especially the children deserve better. How could you as a grandmother or your daughter even consider allowing such cowardly, selfish, ungentlemanly, waste of space around yourselves - let alone around the children? As to your actual questions: Should he leave? No or if he does he should go somewhere far away from your daughter and the children. He made his bed let him suffer the consequences. Can't he leave? Sure, if he's man enough.
