[QUOTE="klmno, post: 247831, member: 3699"] Thanks, all! Has anyone here had to have one of these or know what I should expect? I just called place where difficult child has been to let them know he's on his way back and to fill them in. I told the sw that I had to get a psyh evaluation partly because of psychiatrist's diagnosis. She sighed and started to say something but stopped. It didn't sound like they meant for this to happen- I have a feeling they might be able to help out in the "is mom a whacko" area. She told me that I had always been cooperative with them, had never given them a problem, and was easy to work with. She said what happened in court was not what they had wanted. I called county person to set up meeting. She had set it up before, but told me this time that they could not set it up on my request, it had to be PO's request. I then left a message for GAL to that effect and ask if she could discuss that with PO since PO had not been very cooperative with me in the past about getting assistance from county. Also, I told her that I would call PO myself if she (GAL) let me know that it had to be me. Now, I will email school and let them know that difficult child's case is continued another month and ask principal to call me for details. The way the principal talked before, she was going to advocate for me and difficult child so I'm not sure if she was truthful and maybe she did it to a point that it left GAL thinking that difficult child has NO issue except home life, or if principal actually conveyed things along those lines. We'll see- if she doesn't call me it will be pretty telling. I'd like to tell people that I'll be happy to have a psychiatric evaluation if PO will have one, too. But, I'll just hold that thought! It could work in our favor if it comes back with my typical depression and anxiety, but fit mother determination. Then, it could put a little pressure on people in probation to quit blaming me. (Really, I won't give anyone any grief over it- if I've taken my son to do it, I'll do it too- the CA had no idea that I've had myself in counseling previously or recently and the PO just doesn't get it anyway. The psychiatrist where difficult child is now can talk to GAL about things- hopefully, difficult child hasn't convinced psychiatrist there that I'm the root of all his problems, which he was saying last Friday when he was so upset.)
