[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 255052, member: 1233"] Gwenny, Biomom thinks people shouldn't hear the problems because then Dad might refuse to have difficult child live with him and SHE might face abandonment charges too! If he has 2 parents BOTH would need to be charged with abandonment if one is, I would think. At least if both refuse to have him live with them. You will need to very carefully discuss with your son all the things difficult child has already done to him and determine if those actions have already gone too far. I am sure difficult child did NOT leave easy child out of his torments, why would he leave an easy target alone?? easy child might not want to cause problems for you, or might be embarrassed or ashamed (esp if there is any sexual abuse that happened - if difficult child came in during the night or overpowered easy child or whatever) or have another reason for not telling you. Maybe difficult child told easy child if he told that difficult child would go after YOU. So easy child desperately NEEDS a therapist,especially with his recent behavior change. With those changes and no difficult child in the picture we would have asked you about drugs or possible sexual abuse/assault. So it IS possible that difficult child did something, or many somethings, to easy child. Examine that. Insist that difficult child go to an Residential Treatment Center (RTC). He will NOT be safe to live iwth in 90 days. It is sad. But you have to keep yourself and easy child safe as a higher priority than "fixing" difficult child, especially since difficult child has NO intention of being helped. I may be in the minority, but I really don't think there is much you are going to be able to do with difficult child except keep everyone safe from him and encourage him to change. I am not saying give up, but don't make difficult child your family focus. It won't serve anyone, least of all difficult child, well. I hope things go much better than predicted, I truly do. But most of all I hope for your and easy child's safety. [/QUOTE]
