[QUOTE="klmno, post: 235202, member: 3699"] Oh gosh, Sarah. I'm so sorry you had to go thru that. Placing my son with another family member is a great fear of mine too. My family had abuse in it and I cringe at the thought- plus, my bro filed for custody last year, but then dropped it after he learned that I was going to reveal the abuse and after difficult child told him point blank that he did not want to live with him. I did testify in court about the abuse at a later hearing, just to take the opportunity to let the judge and everyone else know in order to prevent this being an option if at all possible. Hopefully, that will be enough to keep them from seriously considering it. Plus, the Residential Treatment Center (RTC) proposed by the psychiatric hospital is more of a long term psychiatric hospital with an educational component. So, it is a medical necessaity for medication adjustments more than anything. At least, that's our position (mine and the mental health prof's). I just hope I can get the legal authorities to view it that way. I don't doubt for a mintue that they wouldn't prefer to just move difficult child to another home, which would be out of state, and they would make no financial provisions, but have me pay him child support, while being raised to blame all his problems on me.
