My love hit my daughters boyfriend

The other night I came home from work and my boyfriend the love of my life was telling me about how he was in an argument with my daughters boyfriend. My daughter and her child and boyfriend live in the apartment upstairs. When my daughter saw that I was home she came in to talk to me and Her boyfriend stood outside our apartment door yelling for her to " Come here" "Right Now" To say the least that pissed off my BF and he told the other man not to yell into our house. The other guy continued to yell for my daughter and My BF went out and punched my daughters BF not once but twice. Out into the street we all went trying to cool down the argument. My daughters boyfreind was Messed up pretty bad. Now my daughter is thinking about moving out. I will so miss having her and the grandbaby so close. Even though I think it may be the best for one we know too much about what goes on in their home. My daughters boyfriend will not get a job and doesn't do anything in the house to help her out. So we already have a problem with him. Don't think I am taking my boyfriend over my daughter. To top it all off My boyfriend thinks I am disloyal to him because I told him he was wrong for hitting the other guy. What do I do?

I can only say... That it is a sad state if Your Daughter runs with this guy. Worse Your Love couldn't do what it takes to avoid doing something to He may regret. Your DD's BF obviously has a issue. As long as She lives upstairs You all have a problem due to The one BF and Your Love for the problem exists when these 2 guys can't control Themselves. If You already know what goes on and it's not good, I wonder what goes on when it's not at Your door. If it's only going on upstairs usually I would have to make the decision to call police each time so as to make the One Who starts it or makes it worse when it's going on up there stop. So no one is hurt to badly BEFORE it happens. I would start with a warning to Your DD. This way She is aware anytime You hear carrying on up there You will call police. They can then say You called too soon but FAR better to have called before Someone else gets hurt like Your DD or GD. This way They (all 3 of them) are forced to realize police will show as long as something goes on up there. Reports will be made concerning it. If They moved 88 blocks from You and lived in a similar situation the police will be called by Someone Else. If they rent/buy something that is a single family home then it will be worse for Them all only because One has a issue and obviously needs help. Only when help is recieved will the issues begin to get resolved or in the better case of this situation Your DD chooses to change the situation by severing the ties that bind Herself to the bf. I would seriously explain to Your Love that in no uncertain terms did He do something You approve of or will tolerate. His lack of control could easily land Him far father from You and Yours over Someone not worth it. Your DD needs to realize the BF she has is not worth it or if He is worth it He needs help because even if no One is worse for the wear this time... Next time You maybe placing jail calls and the BF of Your DD could be as well. That will help none of You. Unless no food to feed these men is the desired outcome. Or the severed ties due to time serving is what You all need. Bottom line here is the police should have been called long before this day and I highly suggest You see that it is done from now on since even if it's only going on upstairs it may prevent Your DD from being next in line on the messed up list. God Blesses! Pray and I will Pray for You and Yours as well. God's will is done.

Thank you for all the kind words. I have had concerns about the possible activities going on in the ap[artment above me I have questioned and never recieved valid answers. I can do nothing if I have no proof and the only thing accomplished this past week is a dividing line between the two households. My daughter calls me regularly but will not come into my home. I haven't seen the baby for 2 days. My daughter is not upset with me but she has to stick by her man. If anything at all this has made her draw closer to him than before. But at least she is not cursing me. Thank you for your prayers...Yes God will bring us through this all in one piece.

That's a really tough situation. Your daughter will probably wake up one day and realize that she is making a huge mistake being with this man that has no respect for her or her parents. I try to support everything that my husband does even if I think he is WRONG, but when we are alone I do tell him that I didn't agree with what he did or said which ever is the case. I can understand your boyfriend wanting to protect his house and the people inside the house, but since most places you can go to jail for assult sometimes it's better to do nothing rather than go to jail. I hope everything works out well for you. Very best of luck!

Thank you so much for the responce. I hope all things work out too. I really do feel if my daughter moves a little farther away we will all come together agian. Like I said my house knows too much about what is happening in her house.
