[QUOTE="nvts, post: 282446, member: 3814"] Hi! I'm so sorry that things worked out this way. Could you enlist the help of the friends parents and tell them that you don't want him to be offered an overnight stay unless they clear it with you first? Having that "pre-arrangement" might keep things from going out of control. Remember one thing: this doesn't mean that the new medications aren't working. On some level, he's gotten his way in the past with this type of outburst so naturally, he's going to keep trying it. You're doing the best that you can...have a good cry and then give yourself a break. Something I was lucky to figure out pretty early in the game: "We can't judge ourselves as parents by normal societal standards because our kids aren't normal societal kids." Keep your chin up, we're here for you! Beth [/QUOTE]
