[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 241318, member: 1233"] I am so glad things are moving in the right direction. Wiz was in our state's version of a state psychiatric hospital for his 4 month stay. It was a lock-down facility but I was very happy with it once he finally showed his true colors. It was the first time I had 2 professionals who said they could see there was a lot going on that needed to be fixed but he was a master at covering those things up. They helped me plan to push his buttons to get him to show the problem behaviors. Other parents were not very involved, though some were. The staff was very nice, very caring, and most did not tolerate too much bs with-o being mean. They even had men who worked there and forced the boys to shower - with soap and shampoo! They also had the group therapy for males who were on the road to becoming sex offenders. This TOTALLY changed the way Wiz looked at his behavior towards his sister. The change started when he was mouthing off about being "too smart" and "too good" and not needing the group. Then another boy his size punched him in the mouth! It really opened his eyes! (Sad when major changes only come about because some other kid punches your kid in the face, but it is what it is.) Anyway, I would not hesitate to put Wiz back in the facility he was in. Later stays were at a different facility simply because it was close to husband's work and we only had 1 car. I will hope and pray that this turns out to be exactly what you and difficult child need. and that someone punches the PO in her big fat mouth. (Anyone wanna join me out behind the building to "adjust" her "attitude"???) Send difficult child my love, tell him I know he can work with the staff to get a handle on this. Love you! Susie [/QUOTE]
