}:) First of all, I have never layed a finger on this kid even though he has needed it many times. My son has to hear it from a kid at school that SS is going around telling people that he ran away from home because I abuse him. Saying I punched him in the face. Truth be told I called him out on his lies so he ran away. REALLY?! I tell DH and all he says is that he will take care of it and don't know what to say. I don't know how much of this I can take. So far no authorities have contacted me so maybe he has just told this one child at school. To beat all, it is a friend of my son and this kid comes over to the house a lot and likes me. How dare this brat. This has gone far enough. I'm likely to tell DH and SS to pack them a bag and find somewhere else to cause chaos.

I think it would be more constructive NOT to tell your DH to pack a bag, and for him to stand by your side and make it clear to your SS how serious allegations of abuse are.

For one, your SS shouldn't be welcome in your home again until he recants his lies and apologizes to you. Publicly, not privately, because he has humiliated you publicly.

That's just for starters.

Never, ever, ever alone with the little liar. Loser kid started saying lies about me and my DH and his darn family were all over me. Needless to say, I completely stopped EVER being with her alone. If DH didn't wake up when she did, but I was awake, I would stay in bed until DH woke up. I never again kept her not even for a single minute. I never again even let DH take a shower while she was with us unless she was asleep and I was in my room. Never, ever again...Needless to say, then of course, I was told I was overreacting and that it was not fair to the kid. Not my problem.

SS lives here full time. The only break i get is during the summer when he goes to TX to visit BM. I told DH that I didn't want to be left alone with him ever again and he agreed. We will see when it become inconvenient for him and Dh throws a fit about it. I'm still waiting on my apology. If its anything like the one he gave the boy at school that brought it to our attention then it will all be my fault too. Yes, he is now blaming the boy at school for telling instead of apologizing for lying to him. I had to get a call from the boys mother last night. Luckily, we get along and she knows that I would never lay a hand on a child in an abusing way.
