When you hire a kid as a babysitter who is known for getting into public physical battles with his sister and not so long ago sent her to the ER, then he is going to eventually resort to violence and threats. This sort of action would be effective with most kids, but the longer this goes on, the more I think there is something wrong with Christopher and Richard. When I was that age, if a bigger kid threw me to the ground and threatened to hit and kill me, I would have left well enough alone.
