[QUOTE="DDD, post: 43581, member: 35"] Sending caring thoughts your way. All of us "know" how desperately you wanted him to follow his upbringing. Sadly, most of us also knew that it probably was a losing battle. You outlined a complete black and white plan. Is it in writing in detail for your signature, wife's signature and difficult child's signature too?? It really has to be to make sure that there is proof that all three understand all the rules. Might I suggest that you have perhaps looked at facilities other than S.A. residential programs? S.A. programs do not require severe mental health issues. They do require the kid to sign in and agree to the rules. It would be good to search for the best program available now so that IF your difficult child has any day of awakening you can offer a program as an alternative to what he is choosing. Most of our difficult children will at least consider a S.A. program when everything is crashing around them or they no longer have a comfortable option at home. Meanwhile........I'm joining the others sending support to you and your wife. DDD [/QUOTE]
