[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 106899, member: 3626"] I don't know what to say. Honestly, I'm thoroughly confused. They knew where he was, didn't care, didn't tell the police, didn't tell you but classified him as a runaway and said he has to leave? Okay, if they want him gone why make the excuses? Just say he has to leave. They're not forced to keep him. It does sound like he needs a more structured setting. What are his objections to the other group home? That it will be a little bit harder and make him more accountable? Dude, you're 17. It's about time you started learning responsibility! I do understand the CW not being happy to hear you told him of the plans if he said he would run. I also understand why you told him. He should be able to have some input to what is going to happen to him. If he doesn't go there, what's the alternative? Maybe Dude needs to hear in graphic detail what his alternatives are at this time. It may make the "lockdown" group home sound good. Star, I wish I could find some words to comfort you. You've lost so much in battling for your son. More than most of us can imagine. I wish I could whisk you away to a place where there are no phones, where Christmas is a day of joy and wonder, where you could take some time to heal. I'm sorry for your pain.
