[QUOTE="DDD, post: 197276, member: 35"] After so many years of dealing with so many kids and so many parts of "the system" I would be temped to type up the specifics that you were told (noting by whom) and the specifics that difficult child has shared (and again who the party or parties were who verbalized those feelings). Then..........I would write a letter to all of the people and sincerely state that you seem to be confused by the suggestions given to you and your child and would like to verify the information. I'd add a sentence similar to "knowing that teenagers can easily misunderstand" and that parents also can misunderstand when under stress could you advise? 1. My son is encouraged by law enforcement to attend a church different than the church his family has known for x years? Further, transportation to and from the new church will be provided by government officials? 2. My son is not to be interfered with when he is having a rage, trying to harm others in the household and/or breaking objects? Further, if I try as his Mother to curb these destructive behaviors in a non-violent way than I am threatened with arrest? 3. We seemed to miss the specific suggestions for establishing parental control and providing structure to an unruly teen. Am I to call for backup each time it appears that X is going to escalate his dangerous behavior? Would you be so kind to repond in writing to my inquiry? Yep...........that's how I would likely face this problem. Am I suggesting that it is the best choice. Heck no. The "good ole boys" would not like being questioned. Sending hugs to you. It's a shame to live that way. DDD [/QUOTE]
