[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 617559, member: 17461"] I like what Recovering posted about staying in the Now, aud. She is right. Your son is manipulating you, bullying you with anger, with "shock and awe" tactics. Here is the thing. What are you supposed to do, lie about what he did? Not press charges? Take him home with you? Your son is showing you who he is. It has to really hurt to know that, but that is why you had to call in the authorities. For some reason, this male feels it is his right to abuse both you and his sister. What he is really angry about is that you are telling him "no." You knew when you decided to take measures to protect yourself and your daughter that this abusive male was not going to like that. They so much prefer cowering to defiance in their victims. Bullies are like that. You are not a victim, aud. You might want to write him back and tell him that, in case he hasn't noticed, the worm has turned. Then, you might want to tell him to keep a civil tongue in his head while writing to his mother. If you don't teach him how to talk to you aud, who will? Cedar [/QUOTE]
