[QUOTE="klmno, post: 391235, member: 3699"] It's ok- what you are saying I mean. I've just had my share of court people due to difficult child stuff and honestly resent them being in my life at all since it was never me that broke the law- at least not in the past 30 years and I never got myself caught up in the court system. After all the experience I had with them in our last town, I don't see any effort to contact me as friendly, right or wrong. I sure don't want PO cards popping up all over my life when my son isn't even living here. It's bad enough that our state requires monthly phone contact with the parent and a face-to-face meeting with the parent every 90 days while the juvenile is incarcerated. The general public doesn't get this and assumes it's the parent in trouble. The parent can never feel like the are away from the system, even though it was the kid that got into trouble. And furthermore, they have never done one thing that has helped my son get rehabilitated so I really view it more as a waste of taxpayers' dollars. They'll pay these peoples' salaries but supposedly can't afford a group home or any type of service that actually might be effective. [/QUOTE]
