Last night I took my daughter (13) out. My o/h was alone for an hour before my son (17) came in and started cooking tea. My son noticed that his dad was agitated and crying (but that's not unusual). To cut a not very long story short my o/h had his son by the throat. Fortunately no one was injured, the pan of boiling rice didnt hit anyone, my o/h didn't have a weapon. My son phoned me in floods of tears and I got neighbours to intervene till I got home.
Phoned social work to ask for emergency respite. ...no one will take him because he might be violent. I don't blame them!
Next time i will just phone 999.
