[quote=Anonymous]I would be careful about calling police. Not that it is wrong but police coming to the house at a time when emotions are running high and accusations of child abuse are being made can actually be very traumatizing for young children. It can lead to kids having fears, panic attacks etc that if mommy daddy or the child themselves does anything wrong the police might come and take them away. They have a hard time differentiating between degrees of 'bad behavior'. As in the police took daddy away because he hit me, if I hit younger brother they might come and take me away. Or that because they did something wrong and that is why mommy/daddy were mad at them that they are responsible for what happens. Different than filing a report after the fact. Again, not saying it is wrong and in some situations might be the right thing but not necessarily in the best interest of the kids to put them through that solely in the hopes it will bolster your case in court.
