The couple has two daughters just the age of my grand daughters. Seems to me like a great family but I don't know much about ptsd. Just give your best guess.

Best answer!
Many people live with ptsd. It is not easy and it can be hazardous to those around folks with ptsd. If I had that with frequent episodes I would seek to sleep alone, outside the home recovering over time where I would not bother others or harm myself in the night, locked in. I have seen this in others and know it can be emotionally hazardous to others and sometimes physically hazardous also.

Sure I would. My dad served in the Korea War and I’m sure he had ptsd and he was a great father. It would depend on how I felt about the dad myself probably…...

If the family feels comfortable enough to invite others to spend the night in their home, I would suspect the condition is being treated medically and psychologically/psychiatrically.
Your granddaughters' parents can be tactful and honest in asking if the kids will aggravate the illness. If it is not a secret, then a thoughtfully worded question should resolve all doubt.
I'm embarrassed for the way questions about alcohol, drugs, and abuse are being asked like it's a "given". Those aren't conditions/situations that are generally common knowledge in the community. Show some respect and tact, for goodness sake.

That is one of the reasons why I like to come here with my questions. I KNOW the experts. If an answer isn't right for my circumstances I can tell.
You put all our brains together and you come up with a REALLY REALLY bright brain. (tee hee)
Now about that dang egg ... I'm just gonna dump them in a pan and hope for the best.
I didn't quite understand your comment, but I do know that she plans on talking to the mom and dad tonight.
