[QUOTE="recovering doormat, post: 225819, member: 5941"] The court probation officer gave us the name of our city police department youth officer whom we could hire to accompany our son to PA if needed. He is a former Marine with a lot of experience with youth and I'd be okay with him -- no cuffs needed, he just has to look at you. My happiness and relief at getting him admitted and getting the school district's cooperation is mitigated by learning that we are liable for thousands of dollars in court costs, including the home monitoring bracelet rental. I don't object to being responsible for the costs, it's just that no one in the system gave us a head's up that we'd be paying it or how much it would be. I'm glad I can comehere and vent so that I don't overshare with family (not always simpatico) and don't let my frustration and anger get in the way of helping my son. Part of me wants to throttle him for the huge cost in emotion, energy and yes, cash, that his behavior has brought us. I still dont' know who stole my jewelry, and I probably never will. But the insurance investigator came to the same conclusion I did, that it was an inside job, either by one of my two older children, or one of their acquaintances that they allowed in my home while I was away.
