[QUOTE="Star*, post: 253276, member: 4964"] If this is what it takes for your family to turn the corner and everyone realize that difficult child needs help, AND just having him out of the house isn't the answer? Then it was worth it. It broke my DF's heart the first time he called the police on Dude, but the yelling and arguing had to stop. It just had to. So with Dude in Department of Juvenile Justice - we decided to take his time at the therapist and use it to get a game plan together for when he did come home - and it took every bit of all the sessions for both of us to realize a lot of things WE were doing wrong as parents. Sometimes with a kid like ours HOW we say things is more important that WHAT we say and having parents who KNOW to walk away when we want to go strangle them is a learned art. -really. Hugs for your entire family. Hope this really gets everyone help! Star [/QUOTE]
