[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 297809, member: 1233"] It sounds like you have had a really hard time with him. So many of our kids are really hard to love, even harder to like. You are not a bad mom, you are a fed up and angry one. I would be too. Now is the time you MUST focus on the other kids. THEY deserve a home that is not a war zone and they deserve to NOT be held hostage to this man. Your son PEED in the waater softener tank that all of the water in the house goes through. He knew it. No way he didn't. Just no way. It pretty much is like the kids fixed bowls of cheerios and he peed in them. Even if you were not using the system it still is a major act of vandalism (at the least). Call the police and see if you need to give him 30 days notice of eviction. If he does get that then type it up and print it. Tape it to the door of his room and take photos of that so you have proof. That is what the Sheriff does. Then boot him out. Let him figure it out. You have other children who need your time and attention and protection from him. My last straw, the one that made me think it is time to pull the plug, was when he bought a SECOND gun. They are both weapons. Even "just" bb guns can kill, take out an eye, or cause major injury. He is a clear danger to your other kids. Get the list of the local dept of human services so he can go see about housing and food assistance. Maybe they have transitional services he is eligible for. Just please please please save your other kids from him. I knew itis so hard,, but it is and must be the highest priority. He will hurt someone if he hasn't already done so. Chances are that after he is out for good you will learn heartbreaking things he has done to the other kids. I am so sorry. [/QUOTE]
