Have there ever been more serious injuries, like a broken arm, even when the children were young? I ask because investigators from CPS (Child Protective Services) are skilled at examining medical records to spot a pattern of abuse, even though the abuser succeeded in "explaining" it away at the time. A pattern over a long period can often be very strong evidence.

So if you are sure of what is happening, contact CPS and tell them what you know. You don't need power or money for this. CPS is there at taxpayer's expense just for situations like this one. Good luck.

The first line of investigation would be to ask the kids? What do they say? If they talk about abuse, take them down to the police station and make a report. Without the kids' cooperation, this would be a very difficult proposition to prove absent some traumatic injury indicative of abuse. if they won't talk to you, would they talk to a counselor perhaps?
