[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 444351, member: 1169"] Definitely have him transported to ER as a "danger to others". I would attempt to get help through the mental health system first. If you have private insurance, call them and ask what is covered and get a list of providers. Some plans cover a set number of days of inpatient/Residential Treatment Center (RTC). If you are uninsured or on Medicaid, call your local county mental health clinic. There are also a large number of summer programs for teens. Google "struggling teens" or "wilderness programs for boys" or something similiar. You can also contact Boys Town and they are pretty good about steering people to resources in their area. If you cannot access services through mental health, then you may need to have him arrested for battery and try and access some services through the juvenile justice system (not as good as mental health but can provide some respite for you). If you have a local NAMI chapter, they should be able to tell you how 'the systems work' in your area. [/QUOTE]
