[QUOTE="klmno, post: 244842, member: 3699"] Thanks everyone. I've been awake for the past 3 hours - I'd been doing much better about being able to sleep thru the night, but I guess I'm still not completely there yet. I'm still worried about what will happen with difficult child at his court. I'm skeptical about so many people anymore, after dealing with people in Department of Juvenile Justice for so long and seeing how they make rash decisions based on assumptions so many times. More and more I'm thinking that having Department of Juvenile Justice people involved in our lives is a detriment. I know it's supposed to be a punishment for difficult child, a deterrent for him, and a means to "fix" family problems that might be leading to delinquency, but in difficult child's case, it hasn't helped anything and has only increased problems and stress for us. I'm not talking about having to go to court when he's done something wrong, I'm talking about being on probation. I'm going to have to take advantage of this current situation to start letting people know that. [/QUOTE]
