As most of you guys know I live in the same house with my 3 daughters and my oldest daughters 5 kids. My middle daughter and I did have guardianship my oldest grandson and my youngest granddaughter things were pretty good when it was just the 5 of us. Aarika moved in and her guy (in prison now) then she moved the other 2 kids back from their dads. Then our little guy was born in Jan of 2020. I love that little dude so much and he has really become a Memom`s boy. Problem is I like to sleep and no one around here realizes that since I sleep in the living room ,as long as they are all up running around and being loud I don't sleep like I need too with my heart is and my Lungs the way they are. I have applied for an apartment , but if I don't hear back before long I will probably be moving into my father in laws farm house. It is way out in the country I don't have any pictures on my computer of it but it is a big old 5 bedroom house with a great big attic. BTW I am sharing a picture of the youngest Grandson. That is my Munchie

You need to set boundaries and make rules. Set a time or times that everyone has to either play outside or retreat to an area away from you. Your daughters need to help get you the time away by enforcing your new rule to the letter. You just have to demand it from them.

That is the problem 2 of her kids (the ones that lived with their dad) can do or say anything to me without getting into any kind of trouble. I hate to leave the oldest and the youngest girl , but She wont allow me to take them with me.

@jeanena Then put your daughter in line and make her be a responsible parent and discipline her children. Don't accept that from any of them. Those two without respect or manners now will find trouble without guidance from their mom. Get control now. Make your daughter be a mother.

Whatever that would make you comfortable, it's what you should do.

Wow! You are an amazing mom and grandma. I do hope that you get some plans of yours materialized. I'd love a respite out in the country, by myself. :-)

I can understand and it's not easy to sleep when kids make noise and play

If it was playing it wouldn't be so bad, but it is fighting and hatefulness at 3 and 4 a.m. that makes things so rough on me

I feel the lingerie you pass through when you are staying with all those people, they are always making noise and quarreling; its better you move to a big house

It would be hard living with everyone, especially young kids. I hope you are able to move to a more quiet place so you can rest. You can always visit with your daughters and grand children.
