[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 276709, member: 6546"] Janet-- That attitude threw me for a loop, too. I don't know how SW was able to read those letters without getting chills. There was actually a written exchange between difficult child and a boy in her class where she wrote about killing "so-and-so". This other student cautioned that she was talking about pre-meditated murder. difficult child's response was very calculated: "[I]I didn't say I was going to kill him. I said that I wanted him dead.[/I]" on the other hand-- the SW did seem very perceptive about the dynamic in our home. In our session, she confronted difficult child about her "verbal abuse" and "manipulative behavior". difficult child dropped the angel act and became very upset...and she admitted how much she hates her mom--and she tried to blame all of her problems and issues on me. The SW did not let difficult child play the blame game and was very straight about difficult child needing to change her behavior. The SW feels that she was very successful at getting her messsage across to difficult child and that she will see great progress. I am not so sure. I see that difficult child is willing to get the heck out of psychiatric hospital. Is she willing to do anything else? Since difficult child is reluctant to be truthful and is resistant to accepting responsibility for her behaviors...I am not confident that we will see great changes at home ( other than difficult child being a little more cautious about where she keeps notes from friends ). I am hoping that the psychiatric report reveals SOMETHING that will require more scrutiny. --DaisyF [/QUOTE]
