[QUOTE="michelenicole, post: 591455, member: 14386"] No remorse whatsoever for the behaviors. He does enjoy hugs though, which is what I find strange because one minute he will give you a look like he wants to kill you (he's done it several times to me) and then an hour later, he'll want hugs. But he'll never apologize for anything that happened when he had his "meltdown." He seems to have no emotions towards others. My mom passed away last year, and while I was upset and crying about it, he looked at me and said, "You mom's dead," while my 6 year old gave me a hug. I've seen him, in the past before medication, do mean things to the cat, like bend its tail in a funny way, but he's not mean to our dog or cat (that I've seen), and I'm not sure if he's shown any strong interest in fire, never caught him trying to start on or anything like that, or mess with a burning candle, for example. My husband says that she didn't do drugs or smoke while she was pregnant with either of them (they were married at the time both children were born). He says they both had normal births, no complications. And, as far as the neglect, we knew she wasn't do the 100% right things as a parent (like no schedules, too much junk food, inappropriate movies, etc.) but we were unaware that it was that severe of neglect, though there were signs. For example, when they spent the night at my house on the weekends, I would put all three of them in the bedroom together and shut the door to put them to sleep, but I would sit in the bedroom with them until they all fell asleep. T and B would throw absolute tantrums and scream about the door being shut, or it being too dark. I just thought they were being difficult, not used to being put down to bed, whatever, not that they were used to when the door shut, it was being locked and wasn't being opened back up again for however long. Oh, and I forgot to say that, yes, she has had many men in and out of the kids' lives. She also just recently had another baby. I'm not sure if any of these boyfriends were sexually abusive. But they were possibly physically abusive. [/QUOTE]
