Re: Sensitive subject...UPDATED

I'm sorry your brother is reacting that way. Is there anything you can do for your own safety - Order of protection, etc?

Unfortunately it's usually the whistleblower that gets its the worst.

Please remember though you did all of this for the children

Re: Sensitive subject...UPDATED

OMG I just don't know what to say, Sharon. I'm sorry you have to go thru this... its amazing that when you TRY to do the right thing these days, somehow it can totally backfire on you. The threats against you and your family is what concerns me the most ... it sounds like insanity. Who will watch Amber if you don't trust you brother enough to leave her with your Mom? Ugh I wish I lived closer by and could figure out some way to help you

I wish I could help, hon. Truly I do.. I am so very sorry. please be safe Many

Re: Sensitive subject...UPDATED

Outrageous! I can't believe they are turning the focus on you!!!! I feel so badly about this and that you have to fear for your own safety now, ridiculous!!! Given all that you are going through now - how did they find out that you called? I thought these things were kept confidential. I remember way back when my cousins were being abused by my aunt, I called CPS - they never told my aunt that it was me.
Anyway - I am so very sorry that you have to deal with this - I am sending you many hugs.
If there is anything we can do,anything at all, just say so!
And please - stay safe -
I'm hoping these threats were just made out of anger - heat of the moment type threats. And that your brother realizes that you were doing what was right.

Re: Sensitive subject...UPDATED

People are so f'd up! I can't believe your Bro and your family have turned against YOU!

Does he not get it that you were trying to help him???? Does he realize that your call was so that CPS would know that the mother was trying to get him in trouble?

Well here's the thing - your brother and sister in law don't care. He doesn't care if CPS and the law accuse him of molesting the baby. Your family doesn't care that the wife is making the child lie. And maybe he'll get arrested who knows. All because you tried to help but hey! why should that count for anything!

I feel so bad for you. How could your bro even THINK of harming your child????? It's just sick and I hope that he doesn't touch a hair on her head.

It's a shame but this is why people stay out of situations like this these days, because of the repercussions.

I hope someone in your family will finally 'see the light' about your bro's and SIL's behavior.

CPS will investigate emotional abuse cases if the child is really distressed, etc.
