Yeah, they said they would continue to do this until she's 18 and beyond out of love and concern. Implying that missing persons will be filed for any future overnight stays.

The implication I gathered from it was that they will file a missing persons report after she's 18 if they think she's missing.

There isn't any information in here to suggest that they did not actually believe she was missing. Which is entirely OP's fault for not telling them she wasn't coming home that night.

I can see that interpretation. It strikes me as funny that they would leave her mother sleeping, and not check with her boyfriend first (assuming they know of him and have his number).

But post is deleted either way, so hopefully things work out.

It doesn't sound like they trust mom with much of anything, let alone parenting, given her addiction/mental health issues, and it doesn't seem like OP trusts them enough to let them know boyfriend's phone number / identity.

it sounds like they did call her brother at an hour when her brother would pick up, and he let them know she was at her boyfriends. in the absence of other information, they probably still expected that she would come home, which is why they didnt do anything else until 4am.

but yeah, hopefully it works out. i think OP is confusing "grandparents disapprove of my decision to stay at my boyfriends" with "grandparents think i might be face down in a drain pool somewhere."
