[QUOTE="ThinkPurple, post: 695722, member: 20537"] Everything was fine come Monday house wise. However, in the midst of cleaning his room, 10 year old had a fit and threw the trash can meaning I had to start over. Monday at the advice of social services we took him to the er for an evaluation. The state said he wasn't bad enough for them to take him (at this point he had threatened to kill his sisters, threatened to kill himself, threatened to blow everyone up, had knives hidden in his bedroom) so I lost my temper and asked why he has to kill someone before they will help him. She gave me a list of hospitals to call. The closest was an hour and a half away, and i called them. Told them what was going on. First they said they would need biodad's permission to admit him, they called him and he didn't answer so they left a voice mail. Then they called me and said he was a threat to himself and others they would come and pick him up and they picked him up at 2:30 this morning. He's there for 5-7 days, hoping they can help him in that time. Biodad called me 17 hours after they left the voicemail on his phone. 17 hours. At the suggestion of the social worker, I let him know what was going on, and also let him know that it was therapeutically recommended that he not speak with 10 year old at this time. Told him he wouldn't get the password and his name wouldn't be put down as an approved contact. Biodad then called the cops on me (??) because I wouldn't give him information. Cops told him they couldn't make me tell him anything. Hasn't talked to the kids in months, hasn't initiated contact in 2 years, and he wants to play superdad now. So that's the update. The twins are home, 10year old is at a mental health crisis facility. [/QUOTE]
