[QUOTE="Masta, post: 9307, member: 308"] OTE: difficult child has to apply for citizenship on her own now that she is 18yr. I cannot force her to do that. As for SSI, I have asked the CFTM (child and family team meeting which consists of her dcfs worker, therapist & the person who administered the neuro pysch evaluation), based on all of her neuro reports would she qualify because she has impaired brain functioning & judgment plus severe Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD). they said based on her testing scores being higher then what SSI accepts difficult child would not qualify. I had her in Residential Treatment Center (RTC) in 2004 for 6mths.. brought her home for 9mths then eventually said I couldnt do it anymore, I voluntarily signed her over to DCFS both for her own good and for the rest of my families sanity. I still have parental rights . DCFS is her guardian. When she gets out of hand she now answers to the courts. difficult child hasnt had any charges against her other then running away from states care back in 2005, she went to DT for 2 weeks for that. difficult child doesnt use drugs as far as I know. I dont know how to discuss this problem with difficult child. When husband asked her about it last night when he seen the cuts she grinned at him (she always grins when she is busted). How do you talk to a difficult child who has impaired brain functioning & judgment plus severe Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD)? What gets me is that apparently dcfs, difficult child therapist and others knew about difficult child cutting but is it not documented anywhere. This week I will find out why. [/QUOTE]
