[QUOTE="Janna, post: 24619, member: 2737"] Thanks for defending me, Dreamer. LOL! I appreciate it, and feel relieved someone understands where I am coming from. I am going to "justify" my statement here once, then would prefer this whole discussion be dropped. I PLACED difficult child 2 because he was running away from home, stealing, getting in trouble at school and being physically/verbally abusive to my other children. I placed him into an all boys school/Residential Treatment Center (RTC) type setting that was to be until 12th grade (he was 11 when he went in), and they wound up discharging him when he was 13 into a theraputic foster home. The theraputic foster mother said he wasn't ready to come home, but because the foster care agency was pushing her, she had to keep quiet. They sent him home, within 2 weeks he had kicked out Dylan's two front teeth and slammed easy child in the head with a die cast metal truck. He was then sent out again. He's never been back. That's it in a nutshell with him. When I said I will NEVER PUT DYLAN INTO THIS SYSTEM, I meant it. I don't know which part of that is not understood. I am a person that says what I mean and means what I say. What I mean is, I already know how this system in MY COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA works and I will NOT go through it again. This does NOT mean that the adjoining county is the same way. This does not mean Linda's "system" or kris's "system" or dreamer's "system" is the same as mine. MY SYSTEM and what MY SON is going through SUCKS. I WILL NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT put Dylan into it, already knowing how it is. None of you have had to be here in my shoes. So, you will never fully understand what I have gone through. I do not see why this is such an issue. Yes, the system works incredibly for some. I am here to say, it screwed me. So, keep your eyes open if your child is in it. I'm not saying THE WHOLE SYSTEM IN THE WHOLE UNITED STATES is tainted. However, the system my son is in, is. Janna [/QUOTE]
