[QUOTE="klmno, post: 404179, member: 3699"] My son got this recommendation from two well-respected child/adolescent psychiatrists in this state. One was head psychiatrist of a psychiatric hospital that juvie sent difficult child to themselves. It did no good, despite his signed authorization, me having him accepted by a Residential Treatment Center (RTC) already, and having ALL funding lined up so not one penny had to come from Department of Juvenile Justice. But- that's because difficult child was already under the courts' jurisdiction and people in there fought against it so judge couldn't order it. See, in this state at least, if a judge orders it, it means it's going to come out of funding allocated to Department of Juvenile Justice. They won't do that here because they have Department of Juvenile Justice facilities- ie, juvie prisons. The judge CAN turn a kid over to dss, meaning the kid is transferred from Department of Juvenile Justice authority to dss authority. That won't work in my case because dss HAS to place kid with extended family member first if at all possible and my bro has himself officially listed as wanting custody of difficult child at any time, under any circumstances. Thus, my anger toward my family for preventing difficult child to get help this route. Next, a judge can turn a kid over to the mental health dept, or a parent can get a kid in the county/city mental health dept and they can get the child placed if THEY deem it necessary. You might want to check into that option where you are, since the sd isn't going to push for this. Keep in mind, if the sd pushed for it, it comes out of their funding. If another agency pushes for it, the sd still has to pay the educational component but they can't prevent placement if one of the other agencies declares it necessary. In my son's case, state mental health profs, along with private ones, deemed it necessary but because local mental health had not come to that conclusion on their own, the local MH rep listed to the PO at the time who told her not to sign off on the psychiatrist's order, meaning juvie courts would stay in control of difficult child's future placement. See why I hate difficult child's GAL and old PO and extended family? Anyway, difficult child's first 2 tdocs always told me to call cops, too, when he refused to mind, much less break the law. I sooooo wish I'd never listened to them. He had just turned 11yo. [/QUOTE]
