[quote=Anonymous]Op, all you can do at this point is observe. The boyfriend says he shares custody, but does he really? Everybody says some variation of that. Watch for his daughter to make an actual appearance. Don't be fooled with "Grandma decided to take her to a ballgame" or "She got sick at the last minute" or "Her friend wanted her to come play". Make sure that you all get eyes on his daughter and do so frequently. If he's not interested in being around his own child on a consistent basis, be aware that he is not a good person. Also, watch how he and your mom interact. We all know what a happy loving couple looks like. That won't look any difference because of the age difference. Your mom is an adult, and can spend her money any way she chooses. So can you. And, the reverse is true, you both can choose to *not* spend money. So you don't need to support her if she makes choices you don't agree with. For now, let her enjoy this guy, but do be aware of red flags, namely his daughter's lack of physical presence, and if she doesn't seem happy.[/quote]
