[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 370183, member: 1233"] Find out where the nearest psychiatric hospital is. If you call the non-emergency police line they can tell you. Or ask to have an officer sent to your home. Print off everything on her facebook and get copies of everything she is writing that you can find. She is NOT rational and NEEDS to be in a psychiatric hospital or Residential Treatment Center (RTC). When you get her to the psychiatric hospital let them know that she CAN NOT return home. They will push you, but it is simply not going to be safe for her to come home. Regardless of how she snows them by acting sweet and innocent, she WILL take some kind of revenge if/when she comes home. You CAN tell the psychiatric hospital that returning home is not an option. Social services will be called. They may threaten you with child abandonment charges. For the safety of the entire house she needs long term intensive treatment before coming home can be considered. If need be go into a therapy session with her and bring up everything you can think of that makes her mad. Chances are she will not be able to maintain the sweet act and will let the real difficult child shine through. Until you get her out of the house do NOT leave her alone with easy child, not even in the same room while you are in the next one. Put good locks on easy child's room but make sure he stays with you or locked away from her during the day. Go through her room, maybe while husband takes her to a movie or somewhere. Make sure you check under the mattress, under the furniture, the bottoms of drawers and shelves for stuff taped there, etc... for anything that could be used to hurt someone, for more writings, and for anything else she is not allowed to have. She is at least delusional. Thinking her bro did something that is bad enough that he should be punished for it 12 years later, when he is only 11, is crazy. Her entire line of thinking is crazy. If psychiatrist might help get her admitted, call his office and get a secretary - press the number for appointments or whatever. Tell the person that you NEED to speak to the doctor or nurse NOW and that you will hold until they can come to the phone because your daughter is making plans to kill your family, esp son. If they disconnect you call them back - keep calling back until someone speaks to you. Sometimes psychiatrists can arrange beds so you don't have to do the whole emergency evaluations, so it may be worth the effort to get him on board. If you have a master bathroom off of your bedroom, use it when you need to during the day. Have easy child come with you and stay in your room with the door locked so difficult child cannot get in every time you need to use the bathroom. LOTS can happen in the time it takes to use the restroom. LOTS. You might want to search easy child's room also. It is not uncommon for a difficult child to hide things she doesn't want you to know about in the sibling's room. easy child would have been threatened severe harm or death if he told you about it. It is another way to make sure she doesn't have weapons hidden. (((((hugs))))) I know how scary this is. You are NOT overreacting, in my opinion. Follow that Mommy Instinct 100%. [/QUOTE]
