Dana, if a counselor reported sexual abuse, you wouldn't need to know the name of the perpetrator because the police already would have that name. I am not asking why you didn't sue him, civilly. I am asking why he wasn't prosecuted criminally if this took place and the child reported it to a therapist. So did the therapist turn it in? Child abuse is NOT protected by any confidentiality. No way, no how. Are you trying to say that because of confidentiality, the police couldn't prosecute the foster parent? Are you saying DHS refused to give the police the name of the foster parent so the police couldn't investigate? Or did they try to prosecute and nothing came of it? Your story raises more questions than it answers. How old was your son when this happened? How old was he when he died? (I'm very sorry about that, btw - I'm a mom, too).
How many children has your daughter had? How old is she?
What sort of wound did she have when she was attacked by the father? Did she go to the hospital? Was there an investigation? Why do you think they might think the wound was self inflicted? If it was a minor wound, why are you claiming it was attempted murder?
Where was your daughter living when she wasn't living with you or at the home?
Do you have anyone else living in the home?
Oh, and I am an Okie - thus the screen name. I am working out of state and can't wait to get back home, permanently (where I have a home). I certainly don't think Okies are stupid - I think they are wonderful.
Ok #1 DHS will not release the name of the man and his son that abused my son. He was 5 when they abused him shot himself the first time when he was 12 continued therapy and then shot himself again at 18 and it was fatal.
My daughter is 18 this is her only child and she has vowed to never have anymore. She never wants to go through this stuff again and as of last week she is now going to have to be put on blood pressure medicine. This whole thing has traumatized her and she crys all the time.
He knocked on the door she opened it when he tried to stab her in the stomach while she was still pregnant she went to close the door and he made a small cut on her arm.
She was living with me when this happened I moved her to the home then when they tried to take my grandson I moved her back and she is still here.
Nobody else lives here I am not married and I do not date.
