Guest guest Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 You have to do what you think will work best for you, in your situation, but I personally feel that in a case that involves another helpless person's welfare and finances, that coming forward and telling the truth is the best policy. If your bpd mother is a bully and does not have your grandmother's best interests at heart, and actually plans to exploit your grandmother financially, then, I personally would not want to be a part of that at all. I think you will feel better about the whole thing if you consult with a lawyer, yourself, on your own, without even mentioning this to your mother, and explain the situation to the lawyer and get the lawyer's opinion on what your choices and options are, and the consequences of each choice. Best of luck to you, this sounds like a very horribly stressful and ugly situation; I hope that whatever you choose to do it will come out well. -Annie > > My fist official post of BPD.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 Hi Darlene, This sounds like my own mother and aunt! Except it was my aunt who got POA in the end. You must remain safe, do whatever you need to do to stay safe. I would only speak up if you must, and if you do make sure you are allowed to speak without your mother present (or any of her flying monkeys eitehr). > > My fist official post of BPD.
