[QUOTE="klmno, post: 283818, member: 3699"] Thanks, Jena! Hair is, well about the same. I'm still debating about getting more cut off. difficult child is still doing very well, thank you! He's had NO write-ups in all this time (Mom knocks on wood)! He's exhibited no cutting, suicide threats, or explosions. He's handled pressure from gang members and bullies very well, as well as taking orders. Since he [I]appears[/I] to be doing some soul-searching, I have asked him to think about why he can't do this at home, ITRW, and tell me so we can work on it before he's released. I realize that the easy answer is that it's manipulation, but I don't think all of it is. I think it has more to do with feeling like he doesn't fit in at school and with peers. We have several boarding schools in our state and some are known to be quite good. The problem is cost- assuming I could get one to accept him at all. But, if he keeps doing well, keeps grades up, and gets recommendations from Department of Juvenile Justice and the JROTC staffm I'm hoping that one might accept him. Still- I can't afford it- costs are very high. [/QUOTE]
