[QUOTE="keista, post: 453904, member: 11965"] (((((HUGS)))))) What a scary night. #1 Did you ask to testify? or did they call you? Generally the DA decides who will testify, and if you are asked, then it is your civil duty to do so. #2 Will you be lying or telling the truth? In court you swear under oath to tell the truth. #3 It is the only way he will stay alive and not be able to harm himself. So, it's out of your hands, what you are going to say is true, and ultimately it protects their father (not in a fun way but it does protect him) I had similar concerns with my kids (still do). Unfortunately mine are too young to know the details, so they have to trust me. Fortunately they do, but I'm sure they question it on occasion and certainly will in the future. Make it clear that it is your job to protect them and you will always do so to the best of your ability. You will do your job of protecting them honestly and legally. Since your kids are older and can understand their father's poor choices, I think you'll have less fallout than you expect. [/QUOTE]
