Funny thing; legally would it stand up. ACLU would fight it tooth and nail, but in NY (the most liberal state after Massachusetts) they will kick grannies out of the projects because grand baby is selling dope on the grounds of the project. See a lot of these teenage or 20 somethings are living with their grannies—and this has stood in the NY courts. I personally think it’s harsh, the law should be amended for granny to have an opportunity to remedy the situation (kicking the bum out)instead of her being on the street.

I don't want to see an innocent (elderly) granny kicked out onto the street because of the acts of a grandchild. If granny is 40 or thereabouts, I might feel differently, it would depend on the circumstances.

Having said that, I might support one (1) lifetime exception to kicking granny out for cause. If someone in her residence commits a crime, the offender should have 24 hours to vacate the premises, never to return even for a visit. Granny can stay that time. If it ever happens to someone living with her again, I don't care if she is evicted from public housing. Anyone taking up residence with Granny should have to sign a statement agreeing that they are aware that Granny will lose her public housing if they commit crimes.

They would find granny dead in the morning.
