[QUOTE="Mikey, post: 124308, member: 3579"] Jo, re: Let me know how that goes. I've thought about doing the same thing with McWeedy and his smoking, i.e. if he doesn't quit no more copays, no more free prescriptions, and if he ends up in the ER with another asthma attack he'll foot the bill (assuming he survives it). I really feel for you on this one. As if drinking/drugs/acting out isn't dangerous enough, it's even worse when your difficult child has a known medical issue that they repeatedly ignore - and that the parents have to (repeatedly) help them recover from. Right now, though, I'm talking to my insurance company to figure out how I can keep him on my policy, but have him be primarily responsible for all out-of-pocket expenses. If you know the magic words to tell the insurance folks to make this happen, would you please let me know? Right now, they say that since it's my policy, I'm the guarantor for all services provided on the policy. Hope it works out for you, though. Mikey [/QUOTE]
