[QUOTE="klmno, post: 352653, member: 3699"] Yes, we all do. Most adults like him, oddly enough given all he's done, so everyone I know wants to see him make it. I found out earlier that the mentor doesn't plan to see difficult child again until Tues. or Wed. of next week- then he told me he never had Fridays or Saturdays available and sometime in the future might be able to occasionally work in a Sunday with difficult child. So I called PO and the director of the company and told them both that I'm happy with the guy other than this problem with not scheduling far enough in advance and sticking to it and now this issue of not seeing difficult child again for almost a week (very bad idea right now) and that I had told people up front that some time would need to be done on weekends and everyone had said tthat would be fine and a good idea for difficult child but now this guy says he can't do that- apparently he's planning on giving difficult child the entire 7 hours/week required from Mon-Thurs in the evenings after school. Nope. So, we'll see. The director says he thinks he can get something worked out about these things- except the part about the time from now until next week. Whether or not difficult child can maintain that long, being the last half of spring break and me not being able to do anything special with him is really pushing it, in my humble opinion. He's been compliant though since Sunday- although he had a meltdown today and I now have another hole in a wall. So I should clarify and say he's been complaint with parole requirements and doing what I ask, but he obviously broke a house rule by losing his temper and kicking the wall. I'll be glad when school is out, assuming he is able to find a job- he can start paying some of his own restitution and repairs on walls and maybe he'll learn to to keep putting them there. [/QUOTE]
