[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 741583, member: 15801"] Ugh that is awful. When you go get the restraining order ask for a victim advocate to help you. Most courts in most states these days have them. Tell them what you told us and have them help you. Also as in any profession there are good cops and lousy cops.... it certainly sounds like you did not get a cop who understands these issues well at all. I would get in touch with a domestic violence agency and see if they have any advice for someone you can talk to in your area, in particular your police department. I used to work for an agency with a police department and talked to many families in this type of situation. So there may be someone in the PD who will be more sympathetic but obviously not the cops who came to your house that night. But there is help out there. No way should you be living with that kind of threat of violence from your son in your home. My heart goes out to you. It is so painful to see this kind of behavior from our sons. [/QUOTE]
