[QUOTE="greenrene, post: 581484, member: 9177"] So, apparently last night's therapy session was not for the faint of heart. husband went in with difficult child, and he said the whole time difficult child was just trying to trash everyone in our family, especially him - yes, with him sitting right there in the room. therapist said she was "hitting the BS button" on several occasions and actually got upset with difficult child, saying that she was being very unkind to her father, and it was unwarranted. difficult child thinks that her life is horrible because she doesn't live with her mom and dad together, she said that step-parents should be illegal, and that she would be better off living with her (extreme difficult child, unemployed, uneducated, basically homeless, whoring, lost custody of her other child) mom. Yeah. husband said that if he didn't fear so much for difficult child's safety with biomom, he'd have sent her up to NC for a couple of months a long time ago so difficult child could see just how good she has it. difficult child said that she'd rather be in foster care than be in our family. therapist told difficult child flat out what foster care is like and told her that she has NO idea how good she has it in our family. difficult child is basically a petulant, entitled brat who refuses to take any responsibility whatsoever for her life and choices, preferring instead to blame everyone else around her, throw everyone under the bus, make false accusations, conflate the truth, and basically make life hell for everyone around her. Being at sister in law's has, in some ways, made it worse. SO, plans are in motion to send difficult child to a TBS in Oregon. Barring any sudden, major change in difficult child, she will probably be leaving pretty soon. Because of her propensity to throw everyone under the bus and make things up, we are afraid to have her stay at sister in law's much longer - we don't want her to have an opportunity to ramp up her antics to get sent back home, which is a real possibility because she hates it there. I hate that it's come to this, but we feel we have no other recourse. I'm just thankful that my inlaws have the means and willingness to foot the bill for the TBS, although I'm a little leery of what kind of strings may be attached, but it will be worth it to finally get difficult child the help she needs. in my opinion, she should have gone to this school years ago - they take girls as young as 10. But it was never my call. Oh well. [/QUOTE]
