ALmost found myself on the other side of this. I was taking my g/f and her two boys 10 & 12 yo to church on Sun when they started fighting. I had to pull the car over as they were wacking each other pretty good. They weren't listening to their mother very well and I felt kind of weird just sitting there. <p>I knew I had to let her take control of the situation but it was uncomfortable just the same. She was able to get the situation under control.<p>The main problem is that both boys were sick all week(spring vacation) and were fed up with one another and it just kind of boiled over. They were fine the rest of the day.

Ashley,<p>Know what, if she did it once (before she's even a STEP anything), she'll do it again. Kinda like my belief of "once a cheater, always a cheater". If it's in her to hit, she'll do it again and I would encourage you to talk to a lawyer right away about it. If G is stupid enough to marry this dead weight after she HIT his LITTLE girl, what's gonna protect them from her later if he won't.<p>Really stinks Ashley. I hope it doesn't happen again. Hope to hear from you some time. [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img]

I feel sorry for ThornedRose's son. To have his mother sit there and say nothing while the OM threatens to hit him must make him feel like cr**. Must make him feel like he way down on his mother's priority list. Didn't anyone ever wonder why the child was angry enough to hit his mother?

I stand by my statement. It is not his son, and he has no right to even threaten to hit him. As a mother, I would not allow such a threat to go unchallenged.
