I'm thinking your daughter is depending on the 16 year old too much and he is likely doing the same as they are both grieving for your GD. I think the concern is for the 11 year old GD and yes, as we don't know the 16 year old boy...there might be concern from some that he might have influence over the 11 year old. It is natural that he and your DD would find comfort in him being around, to a point...but I think your DD needs to understand that she needs time to grieve with her 11 year old daughter. And to encourage the 16 year old to move on too. However that is tricky if he is living there? and he doesn't sound like he has a supportive family of his own. Continue to encourage counselling for herself and her 11 year old daughter.
Can anyone recommend a non sticky body lotion?
