[QUOTE="Calamity Jane, post: 586544, member: 13882"] The culprit's parent was probably trying to feel husband out to see if husband would tip his hand on what, if any, legal strategy you were considering. I think what hurts victims and their families most in situations like these is the despair over the lack of empathy twd. the person/s that were victimized, and the victimizers' lack of shame about saving their own a**. A heartfelt, meaningful apology to difficult child would probably go a long way in resolving the justified anger you are experiencing. Sadly, he may not get that, and you will have to find a way to cope. I'm guessing that it's probably tougher on you than it is on difficult child right now, because of the warrior mom protection code. I kind of feel that if justice fails, retribution often takes its place. So the dreams you're having may be your working out your anger if the legal "justice" aspect of this situation does not work in difficult child's favor. Doing something like that to difficult child is bad enough; not being held accountable is horrible. Totally understandable. Waiting to see how things will play out is so hard. You have my support and compassion for what your family is going through. [/QUOTE]
