[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 728566, member: 19522"] I am sorry JS for what has happened. It is unfathomable.........oh wait, yes, this sort of thing has happened to me as well. As I have posted, my daughters would do the same. Come in through the windows while we were working. Who does that to their parents homes? Oh, yes, our adult addicted children. No respect, no boundaries, feelings of entitlement and when they cannot get what they are after.....rage. The thing is, where does this end? Will we become some news statistic? Screaming and things broken. Violence. Against ones own parents. I am sorry but as I read your account and write this, my first screaming reply is........press charges. It is because of his age and the audacity of his offense, breaking and entering, destruction of property and abuse of parents. If you removed the fact that he is your son, if he were a stranger, [I]you would not hesitate to press charges. [/I] The fact that he is your son, makes this attack on your home no different. If you don't press charges, what then? Will he feel that his indecency and outrageous behavior is okay? It is comparable to an abused woman filing charges of domestic violence against her husband. Just because we are related to someone, doesn't mean they get to commit crimes against us, and we will give them a free pass. Just my opinion. I would be extremely worried about my safety. I think pressing charges would send a clear and concise picture that you will not stand to be mistreated and violated this way. Prayers going up for you, I would be completely shaken.
