[QUOTE="klmno, post: 489754, member: 3699"] thank you, Susie. I can get DV counseling- I'm not concerned about that. It's that no matter what I think or do or whatever anyone outside the juvie system says, no matter their credentials, the people in the juvie system believe it HAS to be THEIR idea or 'it ain't happening'. I'm sure that sounds like I'm just saying that as a vent and when this koi first started 5 years ago, it was meant as a vent. After that probation officer back then said difficult child wouldn't go to Residential Treatment Center (RTC) because it wasn't her idea, I thought it was just 'her' and her snotty attitude toward me. BUt, I'm hearing the same thing here. difficult child doesn't even 'get to go to ANY therapist' unless they determine he needs to. Yes, I was actually told that by PO's super. Even attny doens't really believe me when I tell her this stuff- I'm hoping she talks to these people enough to finally see this herself. After all, her main job as an attny in this town is to be a GAL in the juvie courts. She can help others better if she wakes up more to what this is really like. The problem of course is that all meetings with the kid and parent are private so no one really hears what is being said. I'll be talking to attny about this, too,, but we are taking one issue at a time. Right now, difficult child's placement moved up to the top of the list when the early release became a possibility.
