First you were right on to acknowledge the abuse. Whether the mice actually bit her or not doesn't matter. That is how she remembers it. Second, I agree that at this late date consequences for those henious actions for your difficult child are probably not appropriate. Since he is on medications doing better and in therapy I would not punish other than talking to him explaining thhow it was a horrible thing to do and why and never allowing him to torture his sister again. Third I would have your daughter see a therapist about this symptoms from this could manifest in other areas of her life. -RM
