[QUOTE="witzend, post: 192045, member: 99"] So, they won't take difficult child because they can't afford it and there isn't a bed, but if you don't take him home somehow they can afford to house and feed your other two? Hah! Bluff or not, you need to stand your ground, I think. After what happened up here in Washington State last week with the young man whose mother kept telling anyone and everyone who would listen "Press charges. He's dangerous. "Take him away". He killed six people, including a police officer. Granted, he was in his 20's. No one faults the mom, even the police know he was mentally unstable and that the mother had done all she could. But why do we keep letting things go like nothing bad is ever going to happen, or the police (or the doctor or DCFS) won't feel badly so long as it doesn't happen on their watch? I'm so sorry for all of you. It's just not right. [/QUOTE]
