That is going to be SO hard. I hope the attorney on your friend's side will prepare you for this. I think it would be best to keep him out of the room. Maybe there is someone that can hold your son until you are done? I can see why you would want your husband with you, this will be so hard to do. Plus facing that jerk too.
Will your friend be there, maybe looking at her will help give you strength. (((Christine)))) But what you are doing will probably help put that creep away, so I hope you feel good about that.
