[QUOTE="klmno, post: 220004, member: 3699"] Thank you!!Tommorow will be interesting, I'm sure. difficult child has an appointment with the PO. He hasn't boken her house arrest rules and I have no faith in her whatsoever to back me up so there's no point in telling her anything. I am going to try to talk with the principal before that appointment with the PO. I know I've been burning the board up lately with threads/posts so I really appreciate everyone's input. It has all been very helpful. I guess everyone is aware that I'm trying to nail down a plan so things like group home info helps me know what to push for. Info on what might indicate mood cycling vs deliberate "bad" behavior helps me know how to word things and to whom do I contact. I sincerely hope that I'm not walking into a situation where my son ends up in my bro's custody or anyone else's who is not in his best interest. I hope that this helps more than it harms him and that he can come back home. But right now, I need to take comtrol of my home back and he needs to know it, whether the problem is mental or intentional behavior. Although, I will not pursue juvy for this- he won't get any help that way. So far from what I'm gathering, the issue is that "I can no longer afford to nor have the resources (financially, safety, time) to provide everything needed for a BiPolar (BP) kid, including the therapeutic care and structure that he needs in order to function". Does that sound accurate and appropriate for this situation to you all? If adequate supports are provided or if difficult child lives somewhere else until he can function in this home environment, he is more than welcome home. I will not abandon him and have no intention of turning my back and walking away or not being involved in his life. Does anyone know- Star would but I was wondering if anyone else knows- is there really any difference between a foster care and a therapeutic foster care? (Any difference as far as what they do?)
