[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 382843, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]Farmwife, I'm really not surprised. There isn't a system in place for treating less acute (i.e. suicidal or homicidal) but still dangerous (tho a difficult child will deny it) child. Sue's analogy of rinse, lather, repeat is very accurate. We've been through this with the tweedles ad nauseum ~ unless there is time to set up a step down to Residential Treatment Center (RTC) or hospital day treatment while a difficult child is in "acute care" they end up home with you. My concern is will difficult child be any less aggressive with your parents? Why not go to Residential Treatment Center (RTC) right away? It's likely the next best step in the treatment process. He's well contained & all treatment is in the same area. Less chaotic for all concerned. Keeping you & yours in my thoughts ~ this is a tough time for all concerned. [/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
