a sleepover in 2000 led me to flee with Ian to the DV shelter n Tampa.
i realize now that Alex was terrified that night.
At the time I was upset and embarrassedthe
the two kids were scared. one went home . RThe other stayed the night. His parents were there to pick him up bright and early the next morning. Alex stayed in touch with his father for several months.
it was like Coco the mouse in 2003. Ian was just so desperate for a pet. He was just so desperate for a sleepover
Alex’s tone was violent and aggressive and he had triggered an inappropriate tone in me as was his wont when he was feeling frightened himself.
