[QUOTE="AppleCori, post: 753805, member: 16024"] I am very sorry to hear this news, Leafy, but you did the right thing. You had no other choice. You couldn’t allow your grandchildren to continue to believe that bigger, stronger people are allowed to bullying and intimidate smaller, weaker people without consequences. That they continue to think that this is a normal family structure and that they should emulate this behavior in their future relationships by either becoming a violent bully or a compliant, helpless victim. That they learn that kindness is not synonymous with weakness. That a person needs to stand up for themselves (without violence if at all possible) and if needed, get the authorities involved, do whatever it takes, so that they can be safe. That the cycle can be broken. Because what else would they do if they have never experienced another way? You had no other choice. [/QUOTE]
