[QUOTE="klmno, post: 267855, member: 3699"] Thanks, Heather! There will be tensions between me and the parole officer, I'm sure. I remember a moment when he did throw out a couple of subtle "hints" that there were threats of the judge and/or dss. And the one time I saw him flinch- when he was saying that difficult child would still need mental health care "after all- I didn't expect difficult child to be cured when he got out of Department of Juvenile Justice, did I" and I said "I don't know- why is he in there? And since I'm required to follow both Department of Juvenile Justice and mental health prof's recommendations, he would need to get on the same page with them because otherwise, I was stuck in the middle and tensions arose and difficult child saw a way in to manipulate. But, if all difficult child needed was Department of Juvenile Justice's behavior mod, then why did he need medications and therapy? If he needs both, then he (the parole officer) can worry about getting them all on the same page". Then, he didn't look too comfortable. But carp- I'm ordered to get help for difficult child, the profs gave me parental advice and recommended Residential Treatment Center (RTC)- the PO and GAL ultimately did not recommend these things. So, what do they want? Why require it when it is them that won't follow the recommendations? If difficult child doesn't need mental health care- then get difficult child off the medications. It's also the mental health people saying we need family therapy before difficult child comes home- but they aren't committing to that. [/QUOTE]
