[QUOTE="klmno, post: 169328, member: 3699"] Thanks, again!! I don't know what I would do or how I would do it without everyone here. Witz, I can only wish that difficult child had a judge like that! She has left everything in the PO's hands and based on what I've seen from the PO this past year, nothing will be good enough. Star- it sounds like you are still looking for that money tree that Dude thinks you own just like I'm still looking for mine!! Susie- the medication insurance problem is a whole story in itself. Here (at least what I am finding so far) if you get the kid on public assistance, he is almost assured to have to go to the county mental health agency because the few private doctors that say they will accept it never really accept new patients or have any openings. It's a long story, but the county is more trouble than they are worth- for several reasons- they do more damage than good and cost me more time off work, etc. I have written them off. I'm pretty negative and depressed right now- I'm sure no one noticed that (LOL!) This is because I stopped at the clerk's office on the way into work to get a copy of the written order. Apparently the judge decided to include as a court order that difficult child has to obey all house and school rules, never have any unexcused tardies or absences from sschool, never drink, do drugs, or tobacco products. Yep- I want those things for him too. But now that it is a court order- right along with probation and suspension into the state Department of Juvenile Justice until he's 21, do you know what is going to happen the first time he oversleeps and is late for school? Or, the first time he smokes a cigarette or the next time he's written up at school? Do you think that I believe for one second that this kid can go until he's 21 and never break even ONE of these rules? Do you think I believe his PO will let it slide? So, I officially give up. There is no way and I don't want to put him or myself throught this freaking knife dangling over our heads with the PO b***ING if I take him out to pick up garbage. I can't take it. I am just done. I will probably end up in jail but all I can see is selling my house, telling them where we are moving and leaving. If they transfer his case, fine. If they claim I'm an unfit mother, than maybe they will consider still giving him some reasonable chance. But this is a set up- no way my kid can succeed at this. No way I'm going to put up with PO bit***ING over the fact that he can't. They obviously have no clue what our lives are like.
