[QUOTE="change, post: 196583, member: 4808"] Hi. My deepest sympathies for what you're going through. I've just been through Hurricane Ike (not too badly thought THANK GOD) and it's still nothing compared to what my family went through and is still healing from that was just like your situation. My children are adopted, that's about the only difference. Please heed all warnings and "flags" and protect your daighters at all costs. We tried to do that and in the end, our son violently attacked our daughter and he was only 14 months older than her. She is just now beginning to "pick up the pieces" from it all and still has bad days. Every single day was bad for me for a long while too. I still have a bad day every now and then and live in shame a lot of the time. I feel like a family member died and feel a lot of guilt even though he is the one who put us through hell for many years. He was attacking other children since age 9 and no one would press charges nor help us except for private therapists and his alternative school. His behavior only escalated. Now, by court order, he can never return home. We are still involved in a case (just went to court before hurricane Ike hit) and are about to go again. I'm always stressed out. My daughter has a hard time being happy about anything for long. We are questioned about him all the time (where he is, where he's been, etc.) and we don't know what to say. We are just now beginning to feel better about an answer for those questions. Some family members act weird around us now and I have a few not speaking to us anymore. It's awful. Anyway, I wish you luck and hope it turns out better for you. I wouldn't do anything different as far as protecting my daughter except for having tried harder to get him out of our house sooner instead of believing he'd change. Maybe we could have spared her the violent attack. [/QUOTE]
