[QUOTE="klmno, post: 246660, member: 3699"] Well, I visited a Residential Treatment Center (RTC) today and left my application and some paper work on difficult child. I feel kind of sad now. I don't want to beleive that he should be in there. But, unless he qualified for an extended psychiatric hospital stay, I guess this is the only other option. :( One young man answered a question for my "tour guide". It sounded like he was giving a standard, robot-type answer. This isn't just making our kids learn what to say like a trained animal is it? I want my son to find his true self and be able to tap into his own potential- not turn into pavlow's dog. Then, I found out that medicaid will reimburse a lot of costs- reimburse it to the county team. So, I guess there's no way around them being involved. Darnit. I told these people that the judge would HAVE to order something in order for our county team to approve it, especially with this PO involved because it will be the PO at the county meeting- not the judge. I'm thinking if we can get it to that point, the GAL should be there, too. So, this place is going to email me a letter stating that difficult child is accepted contigent upon funding and list how that funding can be approved easily and quickly. I can take this with me to court. difficult child wants to stay where he is and is doing very well there. Unfortunately, he can't stay there forever and I'm worried about how he'll do at this place. What if he gets jerks for all his tdocs and psychiatrist? What if they turn out to be like the mental health worker assigned to detention or the PO? Are they typically like Department of Juvenile Justice people or do they [I]really[/I] help a kid with emotional issues and depression, suicidal thoughts, etc? [/QUOTE]
