[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 323512, member: 393"] [SIZE=3]Terry, computer games & the like are calming for wm. It's the one thing that keeps him still. Saying that, he has no computer in his room & he's shut down with McAffee. You don't need to purchase Windows 7. I do the same with kt's access to her Sims games. If you cannot afford Residential Treatment Center (RTC) & it's recommend by psychiatrist then I'd suggest the you take difficult children case & go before the state medical review team. If the state decides that difficult child is disabled he should receive a medical assistance card; that with the fact that he is in the system will help pay for Residential Treatment Center (RTC). You'd be asked to pay child support payments. Additonally, if you go to your county's children's mental health team & apply for help with a child in need of services you may have better luck. This takes a lot of leg work; a lot of stepping over heads, etc. In the end you may find what you need - in home services. It took me almost a year but once I did all of the above we got services in here quickly. (We did adopt from foster care but found that wasn't the only criteria. There are many families with children with mental health issues & are a danger to their families.) Just wanted to offer this to you - it's not always about children adopted privately. It's being persistent, what your county & state decide on your difficult children condition. Our initial call was to CPS; we were found to be good parents, it was our children that were a danger. Good luck [/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
