[QUOTE="Giselle, post: 599075, member: 7525"] You can't trust him alone with the other children, so do what you need to do to make sure that never happens, as long as he is in your house. The dog is already telling you s/he's being abused, s/he's running away from him. And he killed his ferret. So this much is crystal clear - get the kid out of the house, or get the dog out of the house, fast. You really need to pull off any veil of denial quickly, before he permanently hurts someone in your house. I'm sure there are moments when you want to think that things are o.k., when his behavior is normal or he shows signs of being the child you hope he can be, and you want to trust him. But don't. He has to earn that over a long period of time, and don't let the other children or animals be his casualties. [/QUOTE]
