[QUOTE="Ironbutterfly, post: 677686, member: 19951"] Also, you mentioned his father lives in Michigan. There is an awesome boys home for emotionally, mentally and physically handicapped boys. Its a residential home ran by Priests from Italy (not Catholic). doctors. Lawyers, people from all walks of life have placed their boys here- has a great reputation, Knights of Columbus and other organizations do fund raisers to support this home. It's called St. Louis Center, Chelsea, Michigan. If you can't afford it- they will take him. Otherwise they do sliding scale. I am just throwing it out there as a last resort when everything else has failed and he may need 24/7 care. They live in pods inside the residential center. They learn social, living skills, have responsibilities, do Special Olympics, go on outings, for those that are able to do so. It's not one of those horror story places. When they turn 18, and if they are capable of living with some monitoring, they have another home on the hill where they have some freedom but are also monitored by House Parents. [/QUOTE]
