What the psychologist said about G-man and the bus

It's going to be a long drawn out ordeal to get him to open up about what happened. Once She gets an indication of what has happened then the psychologist will get the authorities involved. It could happen at the next appointment or it may take weeks/months. She did say that after a certain time if she has introduced the subject of being molested a couple of times and he doesn't show any interest in discussing it she will go ahead and let us know that it either didn't happen or he's repressed it so much that we won't get it to surface. She will teach us how to handle the behaviors that have surfaced wheter they are molestation based or just cause he felt abandoned. I really thought this was going to be a cut and dried session. She would talk to me then talk to G-man then say, yes he needs to be seen cause his behavior indicates he was molested. I just didn't realize that life isn't like the movies. It's going to take a long time to get the answer.

She did sympathize with our decision to transport him to school and allow him to ride the bus home where there are 2 adults. She did suggest that we do not discuss it aloud while he is in the room because I noticed that he gets more agitated when we do. She'll teach us how to handle the increased agitation.
