[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 706207, member: 1550"] But verbal aggression can be just as scary. Violence can be verbal and scary. I lived with verbally violent parents. They did not actually hit each other bit threw things and, more than that, screamed viciously and meanly at each other. Scary. By the time i was driving I tried not to be home as I didnt want to hear it. I DID NOT BRING FRIENDS OVER. I WAS TOO AFRAID A FIGHT WOULD ERUPT. I ENVIED my friends calmer families. That was my memory of my home life. That's partly why I think therapy would help. It would give you a third party definition of violence. I thought violence just meant physical contact but that is not true. I am glad your son has kindness in him at certain times. I think lots of verbal abuse spoken angrily is scary and devastating. And I don't think your child should block you or use his arm against you. To me that is violence that can ramp up. Blocking you is violent in my eyes. To another, perhaps the oldest son is the most important. He isn't to me though. The other kids to me are his victim as are you. You dont deserve this. And nobody's opinion is wrong because it's an opinion. That's why I feel a neutral party, a psyclogist, is helpful. They are not in the My most difficult child did not take drugs and has never changed. He used to get in my face and swear at me or corner me and cuss and threaten or scream at me while bumping me with his chest. I was divorced and scared of him as was my eight year old daughter. I finally made his father take him and he shoved my frail sickly ex sometimes. He, unlike daughter who once used drugs, never changed. My other kids want nothing to do with him and he could never live with me again. Not ever. No matter what. Fortunately he is two states away. We all have our stories. Hugs [/QUOTE]
