[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 288296, member: 1514"] Im not sure what state you are in but I would first contact his psychiatrist and his therapist if he has one and state adamantly that he has to be removed from the home for the safety of the other children. With his level of diagnosis and the acting out he has done, they have to know he is a danger to self and others. If this means you threatening to either terminate the adoption (if he is adopted) or place him in foster care if he is not, then you will have to do that. He is not safe around medically fragile children. I know this is hard to even consider. Placing kids outside the home can break your heart but sometimes its the most loving thing we can do for them. They need more treatment than we can give them inside our home. [/QUOTE]
