[QUOTE="tawnya, post: 368242, member: 55"] JJJ, People have judged us and called us bad parents because we didn't take guardianship of difficult child when she turned 18. Now, she was never in an Residential Treatment Center (RTC) or foster care, etc. We just decided that with all the stupid stuff we got in trouble for when she lived at home, that we weren't doing it again just because she got "older" and "could do whatever she wanted when she was an adult". husband has bailed her out a few times on dumb stuff, but it's getting really old, and I think he's finally getting it. I think that you can't sacrifice the whole family for a difficult child that doesn't give a "care" about anyone else. It really stinks, but that's the way it is here in our home. ((HUGS)) [/QUOTE]
