[QUOTE="katya02, post: 220209, member: 2884"] I think contacting the sheriff's office is a great idea. If you can speak to local law enforcement and explain your history and concerns it will make a difference if/when you have to call in a crisis. I also think that Plan B is a good idea, should you be unable to prevent your son coming home. He won't want to live in that environment even though it's perfectly safe and appropriate, and he'll either leave or do something for which you can call 911. Keep your cell phone with you 24/7, even in bed, and have 911 as a single-touch speed dial. If you feel unsafe, call. If you're not sure whether to call, call. I strongly agree with MT3 above. Some people are wired differently and will not change with medications or therapy. It may take hundreds of bad experiences for them to learn what we hope they will, or they may never learn it. One of my kids said to me not long ago, "Mom, these people come from somewhere. It's not anything you did and it's not something you can fix." That says it pretty well. Keep posting, let us know if you're having any success with alternative placement. [/QUOTE]
