My husband and I have a blended family, we have been marries for 21 years. 3 of the 4 children lived with us basically full time growing up, they are now 25, 25 amd 28 years old. Two were mine, one was his. His other child lived with us only 1 year, she was the oldest then moved 2 provinces over to live with her mother and step dad. She grew up in a non Christian home and is now 32 years old with 2 children, single mom, 2 different fathers of her children. Her name is Elizabeth. She is a non believer and over the years has blamed us for everything that has happened in her life. I have apologized numerous times for not being there for her over the years but it’s hard when she had another mother and didn’t like me and lived so far away. 
we had a somewhat good relationship the last couple years and were able to have access to our grandsons, now 12 and 3 years old. The 12 year old Kharter knows us very well and we would fly him to our home every summer for 2 weeks. My other daughter Janessa started dating a man that was in prison for sexual assault, his name is Alex. He has been out of prison for a few years and has turned his life around. We’ll Elizabeth is very angry at Janessa and us for accepting him into our lives. His crime was with another adult women and not a child FYI. However she said her kids will never be around us every again. 
we are stuck in such a terrible situation. Elizabeth has said so many hurtful and evil things to us. She told us we have to pick her and the kids or Janessa… well we can’t pick! Elizabeth is causing alot of strife not only in our immediate family but also extended family members. We are very sad our grandkids are being kept from us. Thanks for praying Joanne and Cameron
Matthew 19:26 says, “But Jesus looked at them and said, 'With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.'”
My prayer for your family is that it be possible the one find a neutral ground in which to continue a relationship with the family. Amen.
