My older son, Caymen, ran away from home today. The woman that lives with his father has been abusing him. I always suspected something, but now I know for sure. I should have acted on my suspicions earlier.

He went to my sister's house, which is not a short walk. It's cold and rainy today too, so things must have really come to a head for him to do this. He's the type that would sit on the couch all day and only get up for food if you'd let him.

I tried to report this woman for child abuse, but the Davidson County police told me that they couldn't make a formal report since I'm out of the county, I would have to go back to make the report. Well, shortly after that, I got a call from my sis that my ex had shown up there to get our son. I got him on the phone and let him have it up one side and down the other. Long story short, he said he was kicking her out, that he now believed Caymen when he said this woman was abusing him. I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt, and let him kick her out. But I told him if he didn't do it soon, I would come up there and take care of this problem for him. Clarence's sister, Kiki, told me she'd keep an eye on things and let me know if this girl actually leaves, since Clarence still doesn't have a phone.

I almost hope she doesn't leave so I can put her ass in jail.
