[QUOTE="klmno, post: 379210, member: 3699"] Mine was 11 yo when I first called police. The few times I called them at that age for erratic behavior, they brought him home if he was gone and either way, they gave him a stern talking to. The time he hit me, they arrested him for assault even though I did not want them to. As he got older and ended up with mental health diagnosis's, the police calls were more about whether or not he should be TDO'd. That was the case from 12yo-14yo. Two weeks after turning 14yo, he pulled a knife on me. That police call was me asking them- no demanding- that they arrest him and hold him in detention. He was sent to state Department of Juvenile Justice but part of that was because he was already on probation for other offenses when that occurred. He was released this past spring on juvenile parole but is already back in state Department of Juvenile Justice for parole violations and cutting money out of my pocket while I was asleep. Going back to your situation, all I can offer is that with some kids, a stern talking to by the police works. For some it doesn't. It only seemed to reinforce whateever state of mind my son was already in. When he was trying, he did fairly well.. When he wasn't, nothing made a difference. [/QUOTE]
