[QUOTE="klmno, post: 430289, member: 3699"] I'm with you slsh- and no, he's worse now not better. I'm the one telling them that I am not comfortable with difficult child coming straight home. So right now that's only on the table because they are pushing it (court services unit- aka PO). Still, I have to tread lightly on that issue because they technically (and legally) could take me to court for abandment and even though i might "win" in that no one could fault me under the circumstances, they would turn difficult child over to dss which I definitely do NOT want. So, I'm treading lightly in saying that I can't even envision him coming straight home, no matter what his behavior is in Department of Juvenile Justice. That is what I told this PO today and what I told the last one. I think I will strive for the Residential Treatment Center (RTC) but I know it's a long shot. I would have no control whatsoever which one he got, if difficult child gets it at all. But I'm getting some fleeting thoughts about explaining to difficult child that this is what he should have gotten all along so try to hang in there, and that if this whole case was ever to hit bigger legal arenas, it proves something. But mostly- I think most rtcs offer the "gradual" transition home. I really can't see difficult child learning that this is not something to take for granted otherwise. on the other hand, I'm still not convinced that there is a real chance for Residential Treatment Center (RTC) and that PO isn't just using that as a means to lead to telling me he tried but this is all there is - he has to come home or go to dss. That ight sound paranoid but these CSU people are the most manipulative lying people I've ever seen. [/QUOTE]
