[QUOTE="FlowerGarden, post: 97283, member: 3068"] He is saying no to residential. He said that he will try a Partial Hospital Program. We (dr., clinician, and husband & I) feel that he is too unstable and aggressive. He supposedly destroyed hospital property over the weekend, but I don't know what. I do know that he mentioned he hurt his hand when he punched a wall. So maybe that's the damage. We called 2 lawyers and both said that they can not help us. From what the clinician has said, we basically have to take him home and wait for something to happen. Then once he does something wrong, we can have him charged and go to court. Supposedly then the judge can order him into residental. I can't understand why someone has to have a "record" when so many professionals, family, & friends think he needs some time away from all distractions and focus on getting the help he needs. I had to laugh at one point of all of this - The clinician told us that as parents, we are required to make sure that he takes his medication until he is 18. Then a few minutes later, she's telling us how it is his right to decline medications while in the hospital! Unbelievable. I forgot who asked what CCIS is. It's the Children's Crisis Intervention Unit of the hospital. [/QUOTE]
