[QUOTE="Bunny, post: 660629, member: 15810"] From my own experiences with a Difficult Child and emergency hospital stays, they will only keep them for three days for an "extended observation", and then they send them home because that is all that most insurance plans will cover. We were pretty much on our own after that, and we're sent home with a suicidal and aggressive and told, "Good luck. You're going to need it." Have the doctors at the hospital been willing to talk to you,nor do you just get a nurse who will pass along your concerns to the doctor? Does she have a psychiatrist? If not, get one. If you are dealing with a Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) child you are going to need help and support. A psychiatrist might be able to suggest a residential facility. I completely understand the need to protect your other children. I feel the very same way about my younger son. [/QUOTE]
