Well don't stay away too long. This is the only place you'll find a refreshing dose of sanity when you need it.
In a couple of years when everything you've told your friends/family proves to be true, don't accept their apologies right away. If you do that, they'll make excuses for their mistreatment of you. Instead, refuse their calls and emails for a few months or a year. Make them grovel. It's the only way to keep them honest.
The truth is, those kind of people don't apologize. They will be the ones that say things like "I knew it all along, I tried to tell people". You are right in that he should not accept their calls or apologies. He needs to do whatever he can to protect his kids though. I thank God I was able to get through to my kids (mostly) and they see what is up. They aren't that young anymore though.
