So, the social worker came back like she said she was. If you remember, she was convinced that what happened last month was NOT the medication and that he needs long term placement and then played the "what if" game trying to get me to change my mind to her way of thinking.
Well, I got to do the TOLD YOU SO thing and it felt soooooooo good. She was happy to hear he's doing so well. We discontinued the goal about the extreme aggression (haven't had any since he came home) but kept the following adult directives and social skills ones. She willingly discontinued the CTSS worker after I told her that when I asked gfg1about starting back up with that, he said "Hmmmm. I think I've been doing pretty good without him now". She agreed since difficult child 1 is involved in so many other structured social situations with knowledgeable adults than can teach him appropriate social skills (Boy Scouts and church youth group). As she was getting ready to leave, she said "I am glad things are back to normal. I really did have my doubts." DUH?!? Ya Think?!?
I just LOVE proving the "professionals" wrong. Maybe she'll actually come to the realization that I DO know my son. Gee, what a novel concept.
