In some states, even pastors are required to report such abuse. The father needs to get back to reality and allow the process to complete its course. I'm astonished the father didn't report the abuse himself. Too many kids are killed by 'boyfriends'.
The father has his son at home and is protecting him. He’s a good parent.
I don’t get involved in his day-to-day affairs. He comes to me asking for friendly feedback. I know he’s not going to let the child go back to the mother’s boyfriend until he gets some sort of action.
What he’s doing now, I don’t know. But yesterday he said he was going to check out some options and talk to some attys. That’s all I know other than he’s a good guy.
