Ann’s story

My grandson is always asking me for money. Sometimes he’s not himself and I’m a bit scared of him, especially if he brings one of his friends around as well.  

I haven’t been able to find my gold locket lately. I don’t want to think it, but I’m worried he might have taken it. Julie, from next door, suggested I call Advocare to see if they can help me sort something out. They reminded me there were things I could do to help change the situation and protect myself from him. They referred me to an agency to help me understand why he acts like he does and suggested I might be eligible for some services in my home. They explained sometimes having another person around the home can make a difference to how my grandson acts towards me.
