You might try the Center for Missing/Exploited children. You can try to get the State Police involved. Since it happened in Texas, or so it seems, maybe try the Texas Rangers.

not to make the father out to sound bad but i would be a little worried as well. check the child for signs of abuse. make sure they know that it's okay to tell you anything even if you have to make up a little game to play (i.e. get them to tell a toy what they do on the weekend with daddy). like i said i don't want to make an innocent man sound bad but they arent' always innocent. if my child behaved that way i would not let them see the father again until i knew for damn sure why. check it out.

You should pray but you should also confront her.Maybe she is tired or maybe shes being abused you never know.You should also buy her ice cream.Icecream is gooooooooooood.

Sorry but unless you called the police and reported the abuse when it was going on you are out of luck. Joint custody is the way it happens now.\n\nIf he is abusing the child and you can prove it (your word is not good enough) you can obtain supervised visits.\n\nIf you are not married and no custody order is in place move to another state

Talk to parents.  I know it's hard but try to ignore her by not being around her.  Sounds like she is very unhappy and becoming a bully.  Try to talk to her about how you feel too, but definitely let parents know of her abuse.

The problem is that mom is not constant on the training.  Unless she has been abusing him, that would be the only way she would "know" that it is happening.

Call the police or child services.

Call Child Protective Services which is in the front of any telephone book!  If it is happening right then, like a child is alone or being Battered, call the police and they will call CPS after they arrest someone or remove the child!\n\nCustody is awarded by the court after a petition is filed and a decision of imminent danger is made! Kids are usually placed into foster care until we find a suitable relative, which isn't always possible, especially in sexual abuse cases!\n\nContact CPS and let them know you are available! In my state you can also get custody through a probate court under certain circumstances!

In order to discipline a child you must know the child. Children are known to express their anger or pain in bursts of unruliness. The first approach to determining discipline should be to talk with the child and ask him/her why they are acting this way.More often than not, taking the time to listen encourages better behavior.

When my daughter needs info like that, she calls the Human services office.  They should be able to tell you.  Did a doctor recommend you?  If so, he should be able to tell you.  Most ENT's are by doctors recommendation only.

I am sorry to say this, but if you feel the kids are being abused in any way....you should call child protective services.  They will come out and interview her and her kids and see whats going on.   Forget her lies, if you can see through them you have some power, and not to sound cliche, but with power comes responsibility.

film it!!!!! and call the cops.  if they won't/can't do anything, then take the film to court and get a restraining order.  then next time she does it you can call the cops and they will HAVE to do something about it.  she's apparently unbalanced so document everything!  if you can't film it, you could just tape her using a tape recorder as well, in some states it's actually still illegal to swear in front of children (they are old laws but some states never took them off the books).  and you can get a restraining order without taping anything if you want to, but film will make everyone stand up and take notice.  good luck with the psycho.

If shes a minor then you must tell, not to tell would not be being a friend to her in the long run.  She needs help to get the abuse stopped ...soon...;

well, almost certainly you would need to call your local police or sherriff's office, if you want to report her for a crime.. or the state family services board, if you want to help the children..  but i can't tell you how to do that since i don't know where you live.\n\nsorry!  guess they're doomed to a life of hardship and despair.

To keep from getting slammed, maybe you should explain why.  Is she young?  Suspect she's doing something illegal? Besides looking at her History, there is keylogger software you can download and install.  It keeps track of everything she types.
