[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 753891, member: 18516"] Oh Leafy what an ordeal for you to have to go through. I think you did the only thing you could and that was to have him removed from your home. I remember when my son was removed from our home because he was a threat to us and our property. He gave me a look that sounds very similar to the look your grandson gave you. At that time, I was terrified of my son as he had grown much taller than me. It's the worst feeling to be afraid of a child that you love. I would like to think the social worker would think it to be in the best interest of the other two for your grandson to not live under your roof. I know these kids have had a really rough start to life but that is not the end of their stories. Regardless of what they have been exposed to or any bad behaviors they have learned, they still get to make a choice each day. It is my hope that your grandson will come to see that you are not the enemy and that you only want to help him. I hope the other two will also know and understand this. What a truly special gift you are offering them. I have a family member that took her 3 grands and raised them. They have had issues over the years but the kids came to have a deep respect for my sister and brother in law. You are doing the very best you can and that is all you can do. Sending you prayers and hugs!! [/QUOTE]
