[QUOTE="Star*, post: 148161, member: 4964"] Susie, ja' ever wonder what would happen if you just STOPPED helping your Mom and Dad raise thank you? What's the worst that could happen? If you just totally backed off and let them run the thank you Show - what do you see in the future for thank you? I totally get that he can't live with you (I have one of the quints remember?) What would be the best thing for thank you? I wonder if it wouldn't be a therapeutic foster home. Like where Dude is. It's cheaper than Residential Treatment Center (RTC) and it's actually better - because things are dealt with right then. No one in my house is stressing out over Dude and his day to day behaviors - we have so much more to stress out about with his court junk (lol) But seriously - I think EVERYONE needs a break from thank you - and I think thank you could use a break from everyone. It may be a win win situation for you. You have to go through an area program called Mentor. It's working well for us (me and DF) as the TFP are trained to deal with kids like Dude -and well they are getting paid for it. Dude is doing well most days - I guess. No one calls me so nothing to worry about. Maybe that is what you all could use. I think your parents are saints for even trying to deal with a difficult child. I have no idea where they are finding the patience - but I would say despite your attempts to cool the manga and stuff - they may be using it as a reward because they may be at wits end about his behaviors too. The option to conjure up a toad still stands. :-) Hugs & Love Star [/QUOTE]
