[QUOTE="Wiped Out, post: 341132, member: 1631"] Sharon, The program is only suppose to be in place for 18 months and he has been in it for 21 months. They generally don't extend support beyond the 18 months. We were given an extension in October. We met again asking for another one. They have not talked to the psychiatrist or the therapist or respite. They talked with difficult child's case manager and me (I had to attend by phone). I did tell them about him pushing me down the stairs in November and how he was almost hospitalized in December. I also had to tell them that since we did a medication tweak he has not been very violent-shoving when he walks by-that kind of thing but no actual punching, pushing etc... Also told them about easy child/difficult child and difficult child's relationship. Apparently since January went with relatively no violence they do not see him at risk of being placed out of the home (their main goal is keeping children in the home). School has not been going great. difficult child is struggling big time in the afternoons and they are considering alternative placement half days. We told the committee this as well but that didn't seem to make an impact. I think funding is an issue although that is not specifically why the meeting was called-it was just his time. [/QUOTE]
