[QUOTE="CrazyinVA, post: 241172, member: 1157"] The state hospital isn't the best environment, however.. I think it's TONS better than difficult child staying in detention and you're right, it may lead to Residential Treatment Center (RTC) placement. Just be prepared .. it is not as "warm and fuzzy" as some of the other psychiatric hospital. Kids there tend to be in foster care, with uninvolved parents.. at least, that was my experience a few years ago. I think given the choice of detention or the state psychiatric hospital, definitely take the state psychiatric hospital. At least he'll be monitored, get his medications regularly, and get some therapy while he's there. You've done great! [/QUOTE]
