Hello all, I know most of you don't know me (I'm Rustys wife) ...... I tend to hide in the shadows. But I read much of what you all say and I feel like this is a safe place to ask some rather personal questions.
I have a beautiful son who is almost 8 years old. When he was 3 he was molested by my now ex husband. When this happened my son suffered some very serious psychological damage..... For a long time if Any one but me tried calling his name he'd fall into a fetal position on the floor and cry hysterically until I came. Gods brought him a long way and healed both of us far more than any one thought possible. My son has started to exhibit some troubling behavior, he's turning into a bully when he thinks I'm not looking, and has been..... Inappropriate with himself and his sister. My new husband and I pray with him every day, I have battled this behavior for several years to no avail. I feel so far out of my depth as a parent!!! Schoolastically he's pretty far behind, yet I know he's super intelligent. He also talks like a baby ( which we don't allow) and sucks his thumb. I've tried taking him to consolers but it doesn't seem to have done anything. Does anyone know how to help a child like him ? He was such a tender hearted boy before everything happened. How do I help my son ?
If anything I'd like to ask for prayer, God is really the only one who could heal such wounds.
