[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 686333, member: 1233"] I think you need to put some serious pressure on medicaid to get her into a group home or some setting other than your home. You really are not and CANNOT be setup to meet her needs. NOT for lack of love or trying, but because she is dangerous. You mention she hurts her sibs and leaves scars Regardless of the fact that a child is doing the abuse, this IS child abuse esp of Sweetie. Please be aware that CPS could be called and their solution would be to remove SWEETIE. Not your difficult child because she will be very hard to place. Sweetie woud be easy to place so she would be the one most likely to be removed. I am not trying to scare you. I have been there done that with CPS when my oldest would hurt my daughter. We literally had to go to extreme length to keep our 2 younger kids safe and even that wasn't enough. We were lucky and when the first clueless social worker wanted to remove my younger ones her boss saw all that we did and told her she was an idiot. One thing that MAY help is to call around to ask for programs to help families with violent kids. It isn't easy. I got a notebook and a pen and the phone book. First I called our pastor. I gave a brief synopsis of the situation and asked if he knew of any programs. He said no. Then I asked if he knew anyone who might know of any programs. He gave me 3 names. I wrote his name and phone number down and the names he gave me. Then I called those names, said that the pastor gave me their names, gave a brief synopsis and asked if he knew of any programs. Or anyone who might know of any programs. I filled a notebook with names, phone number, an eventually program names/info. Then I spoke to the school resource officer aka the cop stationed at the school. He gave me a list of programs that even the therapist we saw didn't know of (I shared the list with her). It was a long process and probably took me a full 8 hours of nonstop phone calls, but we found help. I also think your daughter needs a total evaluation for Fetal Alcohol as the others have suggested. If you click on the link in my signature, it will take you to info on how to make a Parent Report - a binder full of ALL the info on your child. It is invaluable as you speak to people to get help for your daughter. I truly believe this report is the strongest and most effective tool you can have too help your family [/QUOTE]
