My son has been verbally abused by his stepfather for 15 years. We are now going to get a divorce. I have a 7 year old daughter with him. Do you have any information about step parents who verbally abuse step children? Do you also have information regarding how to help my daughter cope with this divorce?

Hi I am a single mother of 2 boys (11/7)they are really good kids.I had my sons write a letter to santa and I told them that I will mail it for them.My 11yr I think he knows that Iam santa but we don't say anything.Now in the letter he was say how he hates his dad he really hates him.I think he feels bad about it.and the pictures in he's room of his dad are all blacked out. My family is really big and we live in walking distance of each other.I was going to write him a letter and say its from santa and try to help him figure out his feels and have him open up to me about his dad so I can get some kind of understanding.His dad is a good dad but not reliable.He was abusive to me ever hit the kids and did drugs and drank. He is now cleaning himself up and wants in their lives but my 11y will not talk to him or read the letters his dad write to him.I told his dad he needs to go at our sons pace he will open up to him but with this letter to santa I don't know what to do for my son.

I am a single father . My son is 6 years old. Recently my child's mother and I had a falling out. She has gone to stay with her mother and rarely calls our son. From what I hear from his teachers there has been a small change in his behavior patterns. He is doing things out of character. How do I best explain a compicated situation to a 6 year old in order to keep his spirits up at a time I know is difficult for him?

My husband and I are considering a separation.I do not want to separate or divorce, but things do need to change in some ways in our marriage. We have a 16 year old daughter who is very close to Dad. She wants us to divorce, I think to give her a new life. She wants to live with her Dad. She never wants to talk to me, says she hates me, saya its going to be so much better without me. I feel like the bigest obstacle to a recovery for my husband and myself is our own daughter.

I have a 17 year old daughter whose acting very aggressively. She's been arrested and has two charges pending against her as an adult. She made holes in my walls, she doesn't listen to what I say to her. I have called the police and they called DFCS who told me I have to protect my other two children but no help for my seventeen year old. I don't know what to do. Her father was abusive to me and now I feel she is my new abuser.
