[QUOTE="Bunny, post: 403464"] I think that my husband would be that same way. At one point, I was ready to send him to an Residential Treatment Center (RTC). I had even talked to the therapist about it. husband was adamently against it. He does not want to send "his child" away. I understand how he feels because sending my son away was not what I truly wanted, but we needed peace in the house for the rest of the family, especially for easy child. husband didn't even want me to put difficult child on medications, but I really gave him no choice. Ultimately, we put him on Risperdal and that has seemed to help him. I think that if it really came down to the decision of would we or wouldn't we send difficult child away husband and I would be on opposite sides of the fence. If you can convice husband not to go to the meeting because you are concerned about him changing his mind, I would do that. If he insists that he wants to go, and I commend him for wanting to be involved and not saying that it's you problem to deal with, them make it very clear to him that this was what he agreed to. You understand that it's very hard to send your child away, but it's what is best for her. Keeping her home would be selfish because you can not help her any more. There is nothing else that you can do for her. She needs to be someplace that can give her what you can not. Pam [/QUOTE]
