:O on August 21st SS23 stopped by to visit at my home. He ended up head butting me in my face when I told him that he did not get to make decisions on matters relating to what goes on in my home. I tried to retreat into the house to avoid further contact, but he blocked me and tried to pull me into my own home with the intention of beating me up on private! I am disabled. He has fought in amateur MMA bouts. My 6mo old grandson and 17 yo BD was in front room. I pulled away and went to yard. He followed me and advanced on me again. I then defended myself the only way I knew how. I hit him. He then charged me and knocked me down and brutally bashed my face numerous times. He broke my nose and gave me two black eyes before others interceded. When the cops arrived, I was the one arrested! I later found out that my wife of 1 year (dated for 8 years) had blatantly lied to the police telling them that I hit him first. I Just attened a pre trial hearing and the charges were dismissed against me. He had decided not to press charges, as had I..... The prosecutor looked at the MMA photo handout I had printed, and other info and dubiously stated "this is the victim?" :?

All I ask from my wife and SS's is the same respect in my home as they would give their grandfather if they were in his house. "In fact this is the request I made right before I was attacked!"

Honestly, I am considering moving out, because my wife has shown that she is willing to lie to condone her son's rude and disrespectful behavior at the cost of her husband. Sad

Considering moving out? Why aren't your bags already packed? I am sorry, but if this all played out the way you say it did, I would have no second thoughts about staying.

Unbelievable that your wife would lie for him. I would have counter charged.

Where were the other witnesses? Couldn't the BD17 have told the cops the truth about what happened?

"Honestly, I am considering moving out, because my wife has shown that she is willing to lie to condone her son's rude and disrespectful behavior at the cost of her husband."

It's even worse than that. You were attacked. This is not rude and disrespectful behavior. He broke your nose. Lying about someone who beat her husband is awful. Just awful.

Had people not interceded, he could have killed you. And your wife is protecting your attacker.

I would move out, post-haste. Your wife has shown you where her loyalty lies, and - when it counts the most - it's not with you.

Also, please take this seriously and get a restraining order against her son.

Honestly? I think this'd be a deal breaker for me. Yes, he's her son, but if she really wanted to help him she wouldn't lie.

Please get a ro on this guy. And please do what is necessary to protect your grandkids and kids. They don't need to be around this creep.

This woman threw you under the bus, and I have a sinking suspicion that it isn't the first time either. She has told you loud and clear where you stand with her. I don't think you need any of us telling you what you need to do. You already know what you have to do. You could have gone to jail for a very long time and SHE knew that when she made her choice. I know it sucks when they choose screwed up kids over us but, it is what it is.

Best of luck to you on this journey.
