[QUOTE="klmno, post: 492665, member: 3699"] I don't hope he does that- it would only make things worse for him. It wouldn't change anything for the better. It is in writing that he's going to the group home- not that I've seen it but I know that was the plan sent from PO to the Department of Juvenile Justice facility, which has to be done around 30 days prior to release. It's bad enough they did this for the past 3 weeks and ok, it was to placate me. But look at what they are setting up now- telling difficult child he could be out of gh in 3 mos if we do what they tell us- that's BS, too. There's no way he can unless they have changed the requirements in the past month or unless reentry lady was wrong but I seriously doubt she was wrong. But this is their method- when they ask a family their "goals" it isn't for the same purpose as a MH prof- which is to help you attain those goals. It's so they know what to use to 'motivate' you to do what they want, which in fact, is what is written as the true goals on the behavior counselor's form. The families goals are used as motivators to manipulate the family into doing what the PO wants. It doesn't even matter if there is no way in hades that those goals of the family can or will be looked into. I've seen this done too many times by people in csu. Attny is waiting to hear back from director of reentry program which oversees the gh to find out what the terms really are and what the length of stay really is, assuming difficult child does what he's supposed to. It doesn't sound like there is any recourse to change the placement. I, on the other hand, will be looking for a job outside of this state, unless it really does turn out to be a 3 mo placement but I'm not holding my breath on that. If attny wasn't involved, difficult child would be hearing 3 mos until he got to group home then we'd find out the truth. The reentry program only covers kids in this area. [/QUOTE]
