[QUOTE="jbrain, post: 499552, member: 3450"] This is basically what we did with my difficult child when she was 17. I had "given up" on her but did everything I was legally supposed to do. We reported her as "missing" many times, she was in a PINS program, etc. She did end up in a court ordered dual diagnosis facility at one point and earned her GED there. My story actually has a happy ending--at age 22 she ended up pregnant with her 2nd child (the 1st child ended up in foster care and is now being adopted) and left her abusive boyfriend and her stripping "career" and is now in a stable family situation, going to a technical community college, and doing a fine job of raising her daughter, who turned 1 year old today.
