[QUOTE="Robinboots, post: 348905, member: 4542"] As previously posted, GFG17 was sent back to detention on Tuesday because he hadn't complied with ANYthing the judge had ordered. The judge intended to let him stew for a few days, then emancipate him on Friday, tomorrow. Now, I use that word, but my state doesn't really have emancipation - there is, however, a new law which can give 16 and 17 year olds certain rights; it's designed mostly for kids who struggle with a horrible home life but who are trying and trying to improve their situations. I did a lot of research, and found it, and the judge was planning to use it. However. I finally got with the psychiatrist's office yesterday, posted this too, and the plan I came up with is to have detention take difficult child for the psychiatric evaluation, and if they decide - they being the hospital. AND his psychiatrist, who we didn't have before - on inpatient treatment, difficult child is admitted. If they think outpatient is okay, difficult child will be released/emancipated. Called my attorney, who called the judge. The judge called him back AFTER HOURS and said yes, sounds good, thanks, I was wondering what to do with this kid! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes, I fully understand that things could still go south, BUT it's my last-ditch effort. Of course, it still royally pizzes me off that NO ONE WOULD LISTEN for so long...but hey! VICTORY! [/QUOTE]
