[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 644477, member: 17461"] They have joint custody, Lil. On the abuser issue...I just don't know what to think. I can't think it right now. I have little flashes of PTSD over what happened ~ over what happened last year, especially. For those who don't know, difficult child daughter was beaten, a little over one year ago now, and left for dead. She did suffer brain damage, but has made a remarkable recovery. Truly, a remarkable recovery. But there are places I cannot think past, now. Too much unresolved emotion. So I have to write through it if I want to get through it. Thanks to each of you who have responded. The male was sentenced, I think it was early in December, to four years in Federal prison and two in tribal prison in relation to the beating. It's all pretty messed up. The male who beat her is the father of our fifteen year old granddaughter. And I just get all spacey and overwhelmed when I think about it too much. Really, like physically ill. This is exactly right, SuZir. No worries on the being blunt part. These are the thoughts circling through my head, too. But I think I have been able to process it through writing it out here on the site. I think the risk is minimal. Possible, but minimal. It is the underlying anger, the whiny justification, even the trying to draw me into it, the determination to see things as targeted and unfair to her...there is something very wrong about the way that feels. No, Suzir was right. I am worried for the kids and the husband, too. These are my biological grands. If he were to take the kids and bring them to safety, I would be happy he had done so. There were very good reasons I did not want my daughter to know where her children were, at one point in her life. Cedar Again, thanks to all who have responded. It's a process. [/QUOTE]
