[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 382899, member: 3907"] I'm just throwing some ideas out. I don't know whether such things are available in your area, or how to go about initiating them. Just thinking out loud... 1) I'm thinking about the "threat to self or others", which can get her committed to a psychiatric evaluation/hold in a psychiatric hospital? 2) A PINS or CHINS petition, or whatever the equivalent is in your area (PINS = Person In Need of Supervision, in effect "incorrigible" and in need of serious help). It might help you to get her fast-tracked for services? 3) Reporting her to the police for any other illegal activity she may have committed, while on probation for the matter currently before the courts? It might end up with her having to stay in JD, but you would know she's safe in there. 4) Do-to-get? Make going to rehab a condition of continuing to live at home, if she's at home. If she's out of the house, but you're providing her with any other support - financial or otherwise - cut her off unless she goes to rehab. This is akin to the reward discussed above, but more along the lines of natural consequences for poor choices rather than a bribe for good ones. I'm not really sure what else to suggest.
