[QUOTE="klmno, post: 197452, member: 3699"] He's better tonight, thanks. He talked to me about some things bugging him on the drive to therapist's. i'm not sure his behavior is completely manipulation, although, I can see it's in the mix, too. And i do agree that he can't slide through all this like it doesn't matter that it happened, I just have a problem doing something that will result in him being punished for years in detention with no therapeutic help or mental health treatment whatso ever. That's just throwing him away, to me, being that he's 13 yo. I see that others have kids who continuously are let loose by the system. That doesn't happen with mine- and I'm sure he's a goner if he walks back in that judge's chambers any time soon. As far as this therapist, difficult child has had the same complaints I have. He had said before that it bothered him that this guy just wanted to talk a lot about treating heroin addicts. And, we've both been frustrated because we've gone for so long and nothing ever happens. difficult child said he did give him a mood cycling chart once (I didn't even know that much had happened) but then the therapist never mentioned it again. difficult child's at a point where he's saying, just forget therapist altogether. But I keep telling him that whether it is a therapist or not, I haven't given up on getting some help. [/QUOTE]
