[quote=Anonymous]This sucks. I'm sorry OP. Keep looking for bruises. I would take DC straight from drop off to a bath so that can look immediately before being told. Any bruises get a photo taken with time and date stamp, make SURE the child's face is in the picture. Even if it's awkward, otherwise the photo doesn't prove the child had a bruise.

Also, talk to your divorce attorney ASAP about what to do. You may not be able to do anything but keep a running diary of all abuse mentions by the child.

You should also find a therapist for your child(ren), and ask that person what to say, if you should say anything, to your ex. I know that my child's dad tells him to keep secrets from me, and I NEVER report back to my ex when those secrets come out, because I fear the pressure to keep secrets could become worse. My ex was also emotionally abusive, and became physically abusive at the end of our relationship. I would tread very very carefully and seek professional advice. Lawyers and mental health professionals.

There may be a social worker at your child's school that you can ask for resources. [/quote]
