[QUOTE="exhausted, post: 545611, member: 11001"] We actually got a letter from JJc for precourt hearing to decide what was in the best interest of difficult child. We have never had this before because the last time we took her to court ourselves to get Residential Treatment Center (RTC) help-we had to give temporary custody to JJC. This time she took her brother's car and totalled it clear back in March-just Saturday got the court date. She will be 18 end of Sep. So I don't know. Honestly this judge is not good. He does not understand mental illness at all and is insulting to parents. I usually take the NAMI rep. with me. He is not someone most proffessionals like dealing with. We had a really good JJC worker before-but I don't know if she will be on the case or not-they usually try to keep same judge and worker. In the end-difficult child has been an even bigger butt head when she goes down the roller coaster ride than before. She has also made progress in baby steps-this is the case with Borderline (BPD). We will have years of work. She does deserve to spend some time in jail-yet, I know it won't make a hill of beans difference with her-she says it will be easier than the emotional work in an Residential Treatment Center (RTC).(Not even a possibility at this point). Also I resent that we will have to pay for her time in jail. I don't want her coming home without court orders as she did last August. So who knows? I want to be prepared. [/QUOTE]
