We had lived in different shelters, and friend's apartment, We got kicked out the friend's apartment because she complained that my older kid making very loud noise when playing that she could not stand. So we left that apartment on 5th, and lived in hotels since then.
During the time from Feb 25th, to present. almost every day I ask him same question: are you sure you do not want to go back home to live with daddy. I got the same answer from the older kid: yes.
I had been told by him several times that He love his daddy, but he does not miss him.
I was told by him he scared of going to school or tell police, because he does not want daddy go to prison.
I asked him once or twice if daddy threaten to kill any body if he tell or leave him, my older kid pointed his finger at me. I asked him: you mean your daddy will kill me if you leave him or report him. My older kid said yes.
On april 4th, my kid finally telling me he is not afraid to tell police, so i took him to the police station.
