[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 537539, member: 84"] Welcome to the board. I'm so glad you found us. :) I'd consult a lawyer myself. There has to be an alternative. For one thing, "danger to self or others" is grounds to have one committed to a psychiatric hospital, at the very least short term. Is he in any sort of treatment program at this point? You might contact county mental health and see what your options might be. Personally, I'd be digging in my heels and not just saying no, but HECK NO! You and the other children have a right to be safe in your own home. I don't have personal experience with this issue, but other parents here have, and I'm sure they'll be along to give you some good advice. I'm so sorry you're having to go through this. But you've landed in a great place. (((hugs))) [/QUOTE]
