Today my daughter was sentenced for stealing her brother's car. She recieved formal probation with a bunch of pretty strict boundaries. She will do a work camp to pay her brother back if she doesn't get a job within the month. She is ordered into therapy, though the judge said she had already had plenty of that (you think?) and it was up to her to work her skills. She is under his juristiction until age 21 but she was told that with one infraction, she would go to secured care. They are not releasing her from DT until we set up a program with the PO. They gave us a tough guy-at least that is what they told us. He is on the judges team-they now work in teams with a judge. She went in there with a plan and schedule. He gave it back to her and said he wasn't impressed. He also told her that he thought he would be seeing her again for breaking the law, "Prove me wrong difficult child." he said. I am scared for her-he is done playing around and so are we as parents. I hope she pulls her head out and uses her DBT skills and gets herself going. Please keep us in your prayers.
I have been busy with setting up my classroom so I have not had time to respond to everybody but I have read and am praying for us all. PG-I am glad you have a little bit of peace. AG-you are doing great and I am rooting for you (wow what a decorator you are!). Nancy-glad difficult child was human at family event. TL-I'm am glad your boy is where he is. Sig. hoping for some difficult child brain growth and that he gets upright. DDD thinking of you and your health and difficult child. I know I missed people, but I think of you daily and feel blessed to have this online group. ((((HUGS)))
