A new Step

We had our visit with the worker assigned to Rick. He asked Rick who his real parents were? He said" Their right beside me" Do you have biological parents why yes I do. But these are my real parents. Well how do you feel about them? I love them. Do your parents love you? Yes. How do you know? I just know. Well this guy went through all the ways we show our love. He says Do you respect them? No I'm very disrespectful, why? I don't know. Do you trust them? Yes. Do they trust you? No my mom has stayed upset that I've stolen from her in her bedroom while she sleeps. I asked what finally broke the trust completely? I gave her a Mountain Dew bottle and she took a big drink, only it was moldy pee. This was said while smirking. Wholly cow the dude's whole demeanor changed. You could have made mom very ill!! Dan said but she was for 4 days. He told Rick he can see that we have tried everything. So now it's up to him to change he must follow the program or he will reccommend the state take him to keep the rest of us safe. And his past behaviors are criminal and will no longer be tolerated. He's treatment scedule will be 1 day family, 4 days intensive skill building. Rick came in our room last night and said I'm willing to give my all to this treatment I will love and respect, and I will gain back you trust. I cried my eyes out there is hope, please pray for us that this works. I am frustrated by his behaviors, but I've always loved him. And want us to stay a family, all 5.

  1. The reason I have made such personal blogs lately is to make many of you aware of the struggle. The past 6 years have been a struggle on everyone, including Rick. I know he is hurting, I don't believe his intent is to seroiusly injure anyone, just to get lots of attention and create chaos. So please when you see us please help me be eyes and ears with Dan & I. Be compassionate but understand he still needs to be accountable for his actions. He speaks so strongly of feeling welcomed and loved by our whole family as soon as he appeared. He really wants to visit Dianne and her family but alas the money is not there. I was saddendend the beautiful car from Grandpa Ron he destroyed in a fit of anger. The 2 younger ones are quite sad too. I am going to see if there is a way to glue it back together again.
