[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 238055, member: 6546"] Prior to seeing it for ourselves on video...we didn't realize just how constant her physical abuses were. We only responded to screaming/crying/bleeding...and even then, our son was often reluctant to blame his sister--instead coming out with stories of how he fell, or tripped, or yes, walked into a door. He was so scared that she was going to do something even worse. And there is no consequence if the parents think it was just an accident. So difficult child got away with ALOT. Now that we know the full extent of what's been going on--we are more alert to subtle clues and able to respond immediately (before it escalates to injury)...and he is more willing to be forthcoming about what's actually happening. (Although he still barricades his bedroom door at night...and who can blame him?) But you are right, of course, the cameras cannot prevent anything from happening...it's just another tool to help us do a better job as parents. --DaisyF [/QUOTE]
