[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 703954, member: 1550"] There is no way you could have anticipated this. But you are doing the right thing keeping your other kids safe. Never ever allow him alone for a minute with your kids. You can't know what he will do. We didn't know. It happened in our home and we had no clue. Our young kids were too afraid of him to tell us. I know nothing of what an attorney can do. Since the boy was found guilty (it was not our idea to prosecute him) we got services to help our family recover and nothing bad happened to us. But the boy was no longer in the house so the threat, in the eyes of CPS, was eliminated. CPS offered to pay for services for tjebrest of us on their dime. They were very sympathetic. We fidnt have to look for or pay for help. Our family did well Our boy had a terrible life before us and was probably sexually abused somewhere along the long list of foster homes, but why it happened, though sad, did not make him trustworthy or safe around vulnerable kids as he attempted to take his own.past out on others. I think CPS from my experience will want him living away from any younger children. Our main concern was to protect our innocent younger kids. Please make that the first priority. I still feel guilty when I think about it. How could I not know? I don't even know what to say about your ex. Wow is the only word I can think of and not in a good way. He may well have exposed your son to this, but that doesn't make your son less dangerous. He needs a heap of help and there are no guarantees with pedophilia...no way to ever know for sure he is safe to other kids. You can get through this. Cooperate with CPS. They will probably help you. On the other hand, I don't 100% trust CPS. We were spared false allegations toward others because this boy confessed to police and CPS that he did it alone. It's smart to have an attorney ready in case your son does point fingers at others, like your husband. I really did not find anybody getting "bonuses" for our tragedy. Everyone tried to help us. They were very kind to us and even tried very hard to help the offending boy after he was prosecuted and found guilty and sent to a residential facility for teens who shared his problem. They worked hard with him. If your son points fingers, there may well be trouble. Sexual abuse is taken very seriously by all who protect children. Best of luck. [/QUOTE]
