[QUOTE="OpenWindow, post: 196806, member: 45"] Thanks witzend... it has been very hard and still very confusing and painful to everyone involved. We're just going day by day. GG - I so understand that sick feeling you have. While my son was hypersexual when he was younger, we thought it was under control. This was the last thing we thought would happen - we thought he knew better. I'm a survivor myself, and I am in so much turmoil that my daughter may be going through even a small part of what I went through and still deal with every day. She didn't deserve this. And I can't believe that it is my son who did it to her. My daughter has been more emotional and stubborn since it happened. She has refused to talk to anyone but me about it, and even then it's like pulling teeth. She did open up with her counselor last week a little bit about how she feels about her brother, but not about what happened. I think it's normal that your son would act matter of fact when he's talking about it. I have found myself doing that too when I'm telling counselors or DHS or whoever. It's a way of detaching because it's so hard to really think about what he did and all of the implications. I really do recommend talking to a lawyer about this before everything starts. I wish I had before DHS showed up. Of course, lawyers are mandatory reporters too. How's it going today? [/QUOTE]
