[QUOTE="witzend, post: 193292, member: 99"] Didn't he just come out of the hospital? I seem to remember you talking about a long term placement last summer that was to be about 10 months long. I'm having a little trouble understanding your post. What's "his tudd"? Did you call the case manager or the cops, or just threaten? I understand that you feel that the children are safe locked in your room when he is violently raging, and they probably are. Although from dealing with people of a violent temper, I can tell you that unless your bedroom door is heavily reinforced, one swift kick will get past any lock, but that's beside my point. Exposing children to such violence that they must be locked in a room is no way for children to live. I imagine that they must be terrified. If they are not, they are way too conditioned to violence for their own good. Have you considered a restraining order? When they are over 18 and you are responsible for their small children, your duty is with the small children. It really doesn't matter if he knows how to work a clothes washer or take a shower without being told. He's old enough to make those decisions, and he's old enough to learn how. [/QUOTE]
