[QUOTE="carolanne, post: 12297, member: 1904"] The only dress code actually enforced is no bare midriffs, no panties showing and no negative writings on tee shirts. The kids there are so diverse...preps, jocks,goth,nerds,....it seems to work...until you get a few like gfgd....who are so over the edge everyone avoids them. She refuses to see her psychiatrist...and when she is there, she lies and says everything is fine...in fact, she doesn't dress strange for those appts at all....she learned how to play the adults around her very well in order to hide her sickness I think. The home is privately owned and operated, no affiliation with child protective services or anything like that....teens can sign themselves onto a waiting list just by saying their home life is dangerous...and parents can place their kids there by saying they are a threat..... I used to think it was attention she was after....but the last six months or so I've serviously begun to think she is mentally unstable. She has had this fascination with a graphic comic called Johnny the Homicidal Maniac....the writer is so disturbed! He draws these two teens who have dropped out of school, become pregnant and eat the baby in order to stay alive!!! It's bizarre....some of the stories she's told about her abuse come straight from that comic. She seems to think she is a vampire now....thanks to the home not monitoring what she watches or reads....she is hooked on Ann Rice novels...Queen of the Damned, movies such as Dusk to Dawn....anything to do with vampires. An interest in it is fine with me...I love vampire movies but the difference is I don't pull it into my life and let it become part of me....it's like she can't tell the difference between reality and fantasy!!! I've tried contacting the home via a lawyer but the response is still the same....she is exploring....even the vp of the school keeps calling...but he gets brushed off as well. I know what is going to happen....when she really messes up or slips so far over that the home can't ignore it any longer....then they will want me to step in and parent her and it will be too late....that's what happened when she ran away from there...
