[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 358870, member: 1169"] Keep going up the chain at the Residential Treatment Center (RTC). Kanga fools staff alot as well. There are staff at her Residential Treatment Center (RTC) that -- for over a year -- thought that I just didn't want her anymore and dumped her there. Thank goodness higher-ups weren't so easily fooled. Document! Document! Document! Keep a log of how often you call and he has een crying. Ask his staff "how has he been?' every day and write down what they say. Document what happens on his home passes - call 911 if he tries to hurt himself, if they deflect him at ER, ask Residential Treatment Center (RTC) staff to come and get him from the ER. You may need to look for a new Residential Treatment Center (RTC) that can do a better job with him. If they are used to kids throwing chairs across the room and attacking staff and your son if crying and self-injrying, he may just seem 'better' in comparison to his peers. RTCs tend to get good at helping a certain type of kid and not so good at other types of problems. [/QUOTE]
