[QUOTE="greenrene, post: 581242, member: 9177"] I was right - that appointment was only difficult child's second with that therapist. Last week, mother in law, brother in law, sister in law, and husband all met with this therapist (note who wasn't invited - yours truly - that's another issue altogether) to discuss difficult child. The therapist is well aware of difficult child's propensity to lie about any and everything, but of course she is also a mandated reporter, so... yeah. As to the abuse allegations - we really do think she's totally making it up. During the same session the other night, difficult child told the therapist that we have a gun safe in our closet (true), that we have guns, bullets, a wedding ring, and weed in it (sometimes true except the weed part... actually we removed all firearms and ammo from the house a while back for this very reason, and she knows I keep my wedding ring in there because I told her, and for goodness sake there's no weed in there - good grief!), and that she knew the combination to the safe and was able to get into the safe whenever she wanted to (NOT true!). When pressed about being able to get into the safe, difficult child recanted and said that she didn't know the combination, but she could get into the safe by using a stethoscope and turning the combination wheel back and forth. She also told the therapist that I did drugs during both my pregnancies. WTF??????? I seriously wouldn't be surprised if CPS came knocking on my door at some point. I have nothing to hide. The more I learn about all the BS she's telling people about us, the harder it is for me to be around her. She'll waltz in here all sweet-like, says she really misses us, says she really misses my cooking, blah blah blah... She's so ****ed two-faced that I really honestly just can't stand her at all. It's awful - I know she's a child and a lot of it she probably has little to no control over, but JEEZ. She thinks nothing of being sticky sweet to me one day and then throwing me under the bus the next. Screw that. I will tolerate her presence when I have to, but as far as she's concerned, I'm surrounded by a concrete block wall. Yes, she wants to come back home, or at least that's what she told husband. I fear for sister in law and her family if difficult child decides to ramp up her bad behavior in an attempt to get them to kick her out. What difficult child doesn't realize, I don't think, is that home isn't an option. I can't have her in my home again the way things are. I just can't. husband told me last night that TBS is actively being researched, and that (and this is HUGE, here) he is on board and supportive of it. THANK GOD. The kid needs some serious help and a serious reality check. [/QUOTE]
