[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 274898, member: 1550"] Maybe therapist is seeing that he isn't improving as he gets older. I'm shocked, if he's been this way for a long time, that therapist didn't have this lightbulb moment sooner. I wouldn't even try to figure out why difficult child does what he does. You'll never figure it out. in my opinion he's just a very sick kid who probably has attachment issues, which can mean no regard for anyone else. I think it's great if you can get him into an Residential Treatment Center (RTC), but it's too bad you have to wait. A child like this can destroy the entire family. While I don't believe for a minute that it's fault he is the way he is, he's still dangerous and wreckless. You know he stole the game. You know he's lying. You know consequences won't touch him--he won't care. Do the best you can, just what you've been doing. And then let the Residential Treatment Center (RTC) handle him because in my opinion he is too much for you and husband to handle at home. I hope he gets help at the hospital. [/QUOTE]
