[QUOTE="buddy, post: 470281, member: 12886"] As I have heard you guys talk about DV centers I am so impressed with that suggestion. It makes sense that they would have ideas. I am wondering too if he can be assigned a CASA worker, even though he is not in state/county care. Their job is to give the child a voice in court, and they carry a lot of weight. I know there is a long waiting list for them, but it is worth a look. I am sorry for the stress of this on you and mostly on him. I am sure you have tried everything, so forgive my naieve ideas... If it ends up he is forced to go can you (or if you are not supposed to know, then your mom) go thru each fear he has and help him to talk thru some options he would have in each case? Maybe, (you would know if it would just make things worse for him) at the very least it could reduce his anxiety to know there are options other than not living through it. I sure hope he doesn't have to go. No child deserves this. I can't imagine the position you are in with any X being able to claim the other parent is putting ideas in his head etc. In this kind of a case one would think it is obvious a kid can see for himself, the other parent doesn't need to put ideas in his head, it is just the truth. But the way these people mainipulate the system like that...I am so impressed by what you say about having to be so careful and then figuring out a way to still help. The way you describe him is just so scary and you are an amazing survivor. difficult child is truly blessed you and grandma hear his cry for help. I hope the system doesn't let him down.
