[QUOTE="rlsnights, post: 315256, member: 7948"] What's up at school? Is he behaving OK there or not? You list Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) as a diagnosis. Does he have an IEP? I ask because sometimes you can get Residential Treatment Center (RTC) or similar services through the SD depending on the case. They may also be able to do a combo therapeutic foster care placement and special day school. As for the police, have you called and asked to speak to either a community police officer (some PD have these) or a sergeant? Because I would make sure they understand that you do not feel safe and that he has assaulted you but the officers who responded were unwilling to remove him from the home. That might get you a better response. At least it's worth a try. The other thing is you might want to contact your local battered women's shelter and find out what services they offer. It is possible that you may want to go to their shelter in an emergency if your difficult child assaults you or threatens to do so and you can't get appropriate police support. So I would check it out in advance. I'd ignore the family counselor. Sounds like a well meaning idjit. If she has the power to control what happens with your difficult child then you'll have to deal with her. Otherwise smile nod and do what you need to do to take care of yourself. If he's violated parole I'd call his PO and tell them he's violated parole, has assaulted you and that you want him back in jail/juvie today. [/QUOTE]
