[QUOTE="wethreepeeps, post: 419565, member: 3436"] Susie, thank you so much for your post. I do appreciate the understanding. My daughter most likely has less than 10 years to live, so the very thought of having her live away from me is devastating. The thought that she's afraid enough of him that she *wants* to is chilling. difficult child is violent for many reasons. When he's angry, when he's frustrated. To upset me intentionally when he does not get his way. He says all the kids at school "bother" him. It started out that he was being bullied. Not physically, but he *was* being teased, for talking to himself and rocking in his chair all the time. So he started hitting. But he seemed to get some kind of rush from it, because now *he* is the bully, and hits children who did nothing to him, just happen to be near him.
