[QUOTE="klmno, post: 491387, member: 3699"] [I][/I] I would if it was my choice. difficult child's 'treatment', of any sort, is no longer my choice. I think that's where you are missing the point. In your previous experiences, a PO showed up, waved, then went away until next time. You could take your difficult child to any therapist or do whatever you wanted. It doesn't work that way here, and it definitely isn't going to work that way for my difficult child until he's out of this system. I wish you could see that this is an entirely different mindset here then what you have experienced in the past, difficult child's required level of supervision is different, and his hx is different, and it isn't me that 'caused' this approach by csu- this is the methodology used here for juvenile delinquents. I have nothing to lose by being a parent letting others in the system know the parent's perspective- especially when it's the parent that has been the 'victim' of the kid's worst offenses. They KNOW this methodology isn't working but they aren't getting anywhere at the rate they are going. The recidivism rate in this state is pathetic- especially being a state that wasts no time getting kids committed to Department of Juvenile Justice. This situation isn't to change things for difficult child- I can't change things for him. I have started looking into different methodologies used for delinquency and believe I have a right to advocate for change in this state. I'm sorry if others here can't be supportive of that.
