[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 349901, member: 6546"] Linda-- This whole situation is outrageous! KT is a MINOR! How can she be calling the shots??? And regardless of witnesses, a minor's signature on a contract is worthless. So what is the point of all of this? With every screw-up, I'm sure that KT is just feeling more and more empowered. She can do what she wants. Obviously nobody can stop her....not her mother, not her doctor, not an entire team of professionals--certainly any contract is going to be just an un-enforceable. {{How's that conversation going to go, anyway? KT is still refusing treatment. But she signed a contract a couple of weeks ago. She signed a contract? O well in that case, NOW we can force her into treatment.}} And you are just supposed to live like this? Letting her do as she pleases? Continuing to provide for her despite her behaviors? Continuing to live in fear in your own home??? What would everyone do if suddenly you were not available to be KT's support system? I'm sure she is not capable of truly being "emancipated"--no matter how much everyone is acting as if she is the adult. Linda-- Perhaps it is time for YOU to request treatment for yourself.
