[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 121441, member: 393"] PW, Just out of curiosity, what method would be used to determine if either of these options is a success? How much input would difficult child have on the determination of yea or nay? What time frame would difficult child have to transition to a foster home or to home? As difficult child has been out of the home for 4 years I would assume a drop down to foster care to "prove" himself in the community & then another drop down to home. difficult child would certainly have to "show the money", if you will, if he really wanted to move onto home. Would mum have in home services on board? I'd be leery of an adolscent difficult child moving back home after 4 years with-o daily check in's by some big burly male making sure difficult child is on track. How long would it take for crisis team to show up to help mom out or does she dial 911 & ask for help with a mentally ill child? This is a serious question. What self calming skills is difficult child working on; does he have a reminder phrase that he will respond to from an adult? kt's phrase is "excuse me" or "stop & think". That's all we say - generally she takes a hint from that, other times it escalates to crisis team &/or 911. Is difficult child "using" his illness to scare & intimidate others & the family? Again a big concern. Personally, while I have a family of different addresses (& I hate it), I have a safe family of different addresses. These are the same concerns & questions I would have before I would even consider bringing wm back under our roof. I signed over physical custody of wm to the state. I'm am still his legal guardian & as such, am responsible for my son. I make all the treatment decisions, still sign all the HIPPAs & attend the IEP mtgs & such. I'm not sure the situation of your patient in TX. [/QUOTE]
