[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 428378, member: 84"] So proud of your husband for his graduation. As for the whole police/molestation deal.........went through that with my own family 20 some odd years ago. Oddly, I had one sis stand with me, the sis who's son was the guilty party. When the incident I was having investigated brought up past abuse.......I stood alone. Even sis who stood with me over her son backed down from that one. I didn't back down. There was no investigation for the childhood abuse. I saw no reason. BUT dang it to hades and back, yes the truth hurts, but it's still the truth! I will never be close to my family due to that. Maybe I'm too harsh......but no, I don't think so. Whenever the chips were down, and even when I was a kid, I was always there for them in the face of anything. It was never returned. Never. My one sis.........has since been pulled into their vortex of self absorption and drama. So for the past 7 or more years I've kept a distance between us as well. It hurts when people let you down. It cuts like a knife when family let's you down. I was wanting to ask how the whole deal with the police was going, but wasn't sure you were up to talking about it yet. I know how hellish it can tend to be and didn't want to push. Hugs [/QUOTE]
