[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 25898, member: 393"] A couple of more thoughts for you. Generally the step before in home services would be a day treatment school setting or partial hospitalization to achieve a level of stability for difficult child; so difficult child can learn versus simply being in crisis mode all of the time. Was this just a suggestion or did they offer help in obtaining any of these services? Were you given a place to start? It's all well & good to suggest this - it's a different matter to help a parent achieve this goal. What/how would these services be utilized? Are we talking behavior redirection? Skills training for home life? Sibling interactions & safety? In order to obtain services of this level, you need to have a very specific treatment plan & goals in place. Do you have a psychiatrist & therapist who will document this need? It is also very intrusive - be prepared for very little privacy. It can take months to set up services of this level. Some parents here have had very negative experiences with in home services - others have had very positive results. [/QUOTE]
