[QUOTE="Genny, post: 184851, member: 95"] When husband and I found out difficult child's boyfriend was abusive, we went to talk to a counselor at the local domestic abuse agency. It was tremendously helpful. We learned when to push and when to just be there for her. We learned on average that women return to their abusers SIX TIMES before they get out for good. The boyfriend is now serving 9-11 years for trying to kill her. She is finally moving on and dealing with the issues that landed her in that horrible situation to begin with. But then, we couldn't get difficult child to go to couseling until after that last time. And I truly believe the only reason she testified against him was because of her baby...she knew him being taken from her was a very real possibility unless she followed through on getting that dirtbag out of their lives. I hope Lincoln motivates Betsy to do the same. I highly recommend you go to a counseling session or two at the same place as she. My thoughts and prayers are with all three of you. Genny [/QUOTE]
