[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 121376, member: 84"] Sue thank you may no longer be violent (while in placement) but he IS still being very manipulative and non compliant. Which could lead right straight back into violence if he were to come back home. No, I most certainly wouldn't have him come home. At the staff meeting I'd try to find out just how many things you can have the staff STOP doing for thank you. I'd make it as many things as possible. thank you needs a major Reality Check. And it's time for everyone to see just how much thank you CAN and WILL do for himself if forced. If thank you wants to run around with poor hygiene, his problem, not yours, not staff's. I'm sure it won't be long before the other residents start giving him honest feedback on it. lol If there are consequences for not doing this stuff, let him have them. At this age I didn't care if Travis brushed his teeth, but a daily shower and shampoo was required. Food was my hold over him then, and now. Wanna eat, then hit the bathroom. I did the sniff inspection. Worked wonders. lol Sometimes you have to force them to grow up, Sue. Take it from someone who had to be forced. Hugs [/QUOTE]
