[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 446507, member: 6705"] Welcome... and :hugs: I understand how you feel - as many of us here do. Part of it probably WAS a test - he's had a LOT of upheaval for someone so young. However... You say you've removed his belongings, and it is clear you have realized that "normal" consequences have little to no effect on our difficult children. I do not understand why the counselors refuse to see him. You have the court's blessing for interim custody; obviously doctors don't refuse to treat him, so there's a disconnect somewhere. Can you get an affidavit from DCYF that states you have the right to obtain medical and psychological treatment for him? I'm just throwing out ideas. You do have a very troubled little boy. I don't have a LOT of answers, unfortunately. One thing I can say, though - The Explosive Child was a good book, and though the recommendations didn't work for Onyxx, they do for Jett - and - for me. I'm able to detach a little better by using the basket system. The explosions are still awful, but they are not quite as upsetting to me. (Though since I have not seen Onyxx since June 5, there have been no explosions to deal with.) More gentle hugs... welcome! [/QUOTE]
