[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 410325, member: 805"] kat, wow, a diagnosis of conduct disorder in a 6-year old is very rare. CD is usually not even considered until after 16. Sounds like your little girl had a traumatic start to her life that is now manifesting in extreme behavior. It's really tough to say, but were I in your sister/brother's shoes, I may have to agree. I'm not sure I would take a chance that my niece would become violent again, or that she repeats the sexual abuse that was perpetrated against her. I know it's tough, but I feel that is an honest reaction. Put yourself in their shoes as the guardians and protectors of your niece. You say that you have lost your job. I am assuming you are not working right now. Perhaps the suggestion that you move in with your parents is a good one. Your daughter probably has to be in a living arrangement without younger children at this moment. And, perhaps your parents can lend some additional support. I think you have to not take this request to leave personally. I know it's difficult, but it is best for both children in the long run. Who diagnosis'd your daughter with conduct disorder (what type of doctor)? Is your daughter taking medications? How often is she in therapy? What was the case workers reaction to this situation? Listen, I'm glad you found your way here. You will find a wonderful group of supportive and understanding parents. Welcome. Sharon [/QUOTE]
