my son was not affected by my public life. in fact when he was about 22 months old I relocated away from abusinve members of my family so that he was out of the firing line of threats and so on. I also did not notify people where I was going so that added more safety for him. He had no contact with those making threats to me.

A few years ago my depression kicked in and the end result was he was placed in foster care for a year while the two of us got therapy both individual and family, and i took some classes - depression management, parenting and anger management. My son was placed in a special needs therapeutic school so they could work on what they at that time said was ADHD and of course PTSD from seeing me hit the suicidal edge. He came home but very violent with what I was told Reactive Attachment Disorder and after months of him attacking me distroying things in the house and on the grounds of the appartment complex where I live and then escallating to throwing the family cat he was put back in foster care to go through sresidential treatment program. He is now on his second residential treatment program for when DHS tried to transition him from a therapeutic fostercare and individual therapy combination program he regressed back to more violent behavior. He probably wont live at home again until he is 18. The case has been coded do not return to parent and given this last set back I am not going to pursue overturning the case coding until he can hold it together in a normal foster care setting for no judge on earth is going to let him come home to a single parent with two terminal health deseases and a mental disorder if he can't make it through the steps from residential to semi residential to a group home to normal foster care.
