[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 762984, member: 1550"] Harming us, and I mean all of our more dangerous kids, does not require a weapon. They are younger and stronger than us and hands can choke. A knife or scisdors is easy to get and in anger could be used. In countries outside of the U.S. where you can not own guns there are still murders. I will share Kay's story, the one that got her banned from our house forever. Kay was volatile and put holes in our walls and threw things. I have two younger kids. One is a very sensitive, gentle boy. Kay was angry one day (what else is new?) She picked up a glass vase. Now she was not particularly more angry at our son than the rest of us, but he was in a spot that was convenient, standing backed up I to a wall, covering his ears from her adult tantrum. My daughter was a few feet away from him begging Kay to calm down and we stood slightly behind her looking for a chance to grab her. We got.no chance. Kay hurled the vase at our son like a pro baseball pitcher and it missed our son by inches as it smashed against the wall. He had blood on his body and face and near his eye. Only his sliding away a little at the last minute saved him from catching it full in his face. Kay laughed. We called the police. She never stepped foot in.our home again. We still enabled her. Buying her places to stay, but she never lived with us. We enabled her too much for too long and it never made her a better person. We learned eventually that dangerous people, even our.beloved children, have no right to harm us. We also learned that only they can help themselves. Nar Anon was a huge help to us. It is a program that helps us live reasonable and good lives, even though we have a difficult child. More prayers coming for your strength. [/QUOTE]
