[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 65406, member: 1550"] I didn't realize there was sexual abuse! I would think easy child should be left in peace. This is such a personal and deep violation that I can't see the point in making poor easy child feel guilty that she doesn't want to participate in difficult child's therapy! in my opinion I wouldn't even bring it up. I would tell the social worker NO NO NO. What is she thinking??? If easy child becomes an adult and wants to forgive, that would be her option, but it should come from her, and I wouldn't blame her if she never wanted to see them again--and I wouldn't encourage her to see them again. It almost makes it seem like she's doing something wrong by not accepting their apology, and she isn't (in my opinion). We had a situation in our home where we adopted an eleven year old boy. When he turned thirteen, we found that he had sexually violated my two younger kids, and more than once. The boy is gone from our home, never to return, and we don't deal with his therapy. He's eighteen now and doesn't know where we are. I know your situation is different, but I'd never even broach my two kids as helping the boy's therapy. If I have details wrong, I apologize. [/QUOTE]
