[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 326751, member: 393"] [SIZE=3]Now is the time to apply for a CHINS (child in need of services) along with medical assistance. County mental health is watching the budget closely but cannot deny an order from your State's medical review team. If your difficult child (no one wants to believe a 14 y/o young lady would be so out of control) is a danger to herself (running, cutting, threatening, physical aggression, threats of suicide, & the like) there is a way to do this. It won't be easy. Our state has a CADI (community alternative for disabled individuals) waiver that both kt & wm have; they are worth their weight in gold. The tweedes receive services including Integrated Listening Systems (ILS), PCAs, in home therapy & respite. Saying that it took months to get this in place; in the meantime, our home was in lock down mode. AND we started this process at the age of almost 8 years old. Have you tried some of the Love & Logic for Teens ideas? A lot of times the medications are as good as it gets & the behaviors have become habitual, not unlike smoking. It's a retraining & constant repetition for our little wonders. Just a few things to consider. [/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
