SS just went crazy

I’m not sure exactly what happened but SS completely snapped and went batshit crazy at my 3.5 year old daughter.

They were both upstairs in their rooms and all of a sudden I heard loud banging on the wall in SS’s room. He was kicking, punching and banging on the wall and shouting at DD. DD was in her room (next to SS’s room) playing after her nap and she was terrified and the small shelf that’s on that wall in her room was knocked down with all the pounding on the wall and her Pooh stuffed animals all came falling down.

I don‘t know what to do with a kid in a violent rage so I called DH, told him to come home and deal with his son but I got DH’s usual response - he’s busy and why can’t it handle it? ME?!? WHY ME?!? Why am I responsible for his psycho demented offspring? So I grabbed DD (3.5) and DS (1) and went to my sister’s house.

DD said she was playing with her Vtech Turtle and SS had been yelling at her about the song it was playing so I guess that set him off.

I want SS gone. I don’t care if he has to be living homeless on the street. I’m not letting DD and DS back into the house with him there.

No one has the ability to control anything he does. That's what's so scary. He doesn't care about anything.

He needs to be sent to a treatment center if no one can handle him. What wouold have happened if the shelf fell and hit DD3.5 in the head? DS1? You and your Young children have a right to feel safe in the home with him their you are not.

If your SO refuses to send him to a treatment center, make them both leave for the safety of YOUR kids.

His psychiatrist has said sending him to a psychiatric hospital might be necessary since he's not eating and technically has anorexia. There's a place with a doctor that speaks his native language that might be a possibility. DH was checking if our insurance would cover it. BM might have to agree and she likely wouldn't want him to go if he could do out-patient treatment instead.

You can go above BM by going directly to the court and force her to pay 1/2 back to you. Contact local churches some have programs where they "foster" a kid and try to help them.

It hard force someone to pay anything who doesn't have a job, a place to live and is over 5,000 miles away. We're on our own with paying for anything related to SS.

If I could find someone to take SS, I would. I'll look into any programs at churches.

SS has been seeing a psychiatrist and a therapist for 4 months now. He's on antidepressants. It hasn't helped at all.

DH moving out with him would never happen. He can't take care of a child by himself with his work schedule and he would never leave me and our other children. And to be honest, he can't stand being around SS. No one likes this kid.

If it was up to me I'd put SS on a plane and let him BM figure out what to do with him. She was the one who created this little monster, she can deal with him. My priority is protecting my kids.
