[QUOTE="slsh, post: 406409, member: 8"] I agree with- Daisyface - it is time for staff to start explaining the consequences to her. If they don't, she is going to continue under the delusion that you are Big Bad Mommy and no one else in the world would hold her to such "extreme" standards. She will be in for a rude awakening when someone else finally does hold her to the same standards, especially if it's outside the residential setting. I have to wonder if part of the reason they're not disturbed by Kanga's behaviors is because she's a girl. Would they have this same laissez-faire attitude if she were a boy? It's sexist, I know, but I honestly think that that is part of the problem, and I think you need to ask them that question, just to get them to join you in reality. I had extensive discussions with- them on this very subject the last time I looked at their program for thank you, given his past history. I definitely came away feeling confident that they would have kept a tight rein on him - 24/7 eyes *on*, no exceptions. It is a matter of safety, period. In addition, I think you are absolutely right on in that they've been dealing with- sexualized behaviors for so long, staff has lost sight of what is "normal". And of course, every once in a while you run into the lunatic who thinks sexualized behavior is no big deal - will never forget the therapist we had for about 30 seconds (not in an Residential Treatment Center (RTC)) who reamed me because I felt that oral sex between 12 y/o's was completely inappropriate. She called it "experimentation". Barf. Totally appropriate that she not be taken off grounds for an overnight. I can't believe they even questioned your decision. Maybe they need to be reminded that they are assuming a huge liability by even suggesting it for a resident who they *know* engages in SACY behaviors. I always had to literally bite my tongue every time thank you swore he'd never speak to me again. It was so hard to keep myself from asking him.... "Promise???" :rofl: Sorry, just a bit of dark humor there... I'm beyond warped at this point. [/QUOTE]
