Having / have

Hello teachers.

Do the following sentences make any sense and are correct ?

1."Dont worry, I will have her admit to having broken it"


2."having her admit to having broken the vase, doesn't make me feel any better"


3."Having realized she wasn't guilty,made her feel better" / "having realized the truth now, she will be able to sleep good at night" (I don't know whether I'm making a right use here with the tenses or not)


4."Have her realize that she's just being stupid about it."

5."she ruined every chance she had by having him realise that he's wrong"

2.b. Is it true that:

Having him understood = to understand him

Him him understand = make him understand ?


Thank you in advance.
