My 24 year old son, his wife & 1 1/2 year old baby have lived with me since Nov. of 2006, they were evicted from their apartment due to none payment of rent and had no where else to go so I (single mother who raised him) took them in. Since that period they have developed severe alcohol abuse problems and do not hold down jobs. They do not pay rent or any $ to me. In December they separated and my daughter in law & grandson went to stay with her parents, last week they got back together and again are staying with me. Her parents & I are financially taking care of the baby & 2 grown adults (24 & 23). They drink all day, make a mess of the house, no one helps me clean! And then they'll sleep it off, enough about that! I'm trying to find out if I have to legally evict them or if I can just order them to leave & to what measures I take to make it happen. I've told them they have 7 days to move out, but he doesn't take me seriously, knowing that I don't want him on the streets.

Explain to them that they are grown adults and are responsible for another human beings life. You CAN call the cops if they won't leave but then it would probably lead to them losing their baby. Throw away alcohol if you see it in your house, and explain to them its disrespectful. How are they getting money to buy the alcohol anyway?

I'm sorry to hear your problem! I know it has to be hard to turn your back on your kid but some times that's just what you have to do! My parents took my sister and her husband and son in and they ened up living with them for 5 years and mooched off them the whole time! They were both unemployeed! My Mom always said that she couldent let her grandson live on the streets! But I think if they would have let them hit rock bottom than maybe they would have woken up! If your worried about the baby work something out with the other grandparents where you all can care for him. And Kick them out! Call the cops what ever you have to do! You are not doing them any favors by letting them stay! I don't know what the legal ramifications are but you have to do something! Good luck!!

My daughter told me she has made a arrangement to move out of my home and take her baby ,that I have taken care of sense she when back to work. That is fine, it hurts but I want them out now. How can I legally do that?

This is an old thread - this new comment should be on its own, not piggybacked.

You have to evict according to the laws in your State.
