[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 379229, member: 3419"] Sjexpress, I know the feeling. These kids get over things so quickly, and we are left to stew in our juices for days. I have called the police on my difficult child. They do not take him away once they figure out he's got spec needs. They may take him away if you plan ahead. Of course, it also depends upon what he did to provoke you to call the police in the first place. If all the windows are broken and your nose is broken, they very may well take him away. In one case, the police came and saw the overturned chairs, the broken plate, etc. and knew that some sort of altercation had gone on. (Be sure not to move anything if there is upended furniture. You need to paint the scene. A picture paints a thousand words and all that.) You can also set up an appointment with-the juv system to give your difficult child a tour. I did that. An officer will take the two of you through the cells/rooms and the lunch area and classroom area. They may or may not show you everything, because if it's crowded. there will be lots of kids and you're not supposed to see them. They are underage and the police are supposed to not expose their identities. At any rate, you and your little one will have a good enough idea from what you are allowed to see. Maybe that will put a scare into him. In the meantime, when he is very calm and you are alone, sometime soon (in the next 8 hrs) talk to him about what he did and how wrong it was. He will blame you, of course. But you explain calmly that he is not allowed to to do that or you will call the poiice. Try not to show him you are scared. That gives him too much power. I hope that helps. [/QUOTE]
