[QUOTE="peg2, post: 307120, member: 2133"] You can call the police and ask them to take child to hospital for screening, it sounds as if your child is a danger to you, if not himself. They will hold him and probably place him. I had to call our youth& family services to get emergency medicaid to pay for the rest of the psy.hospital. stay and then he went to a residential, which medicaid paid for. I had a c/w but really no open case for absue and neglect, I just needed them to pay. If you tell them what you want to happen,then they back down. they threatened to take me to court because I wouldn't take my son home from the hospital. I said go ahead, but then I work in the system myself and know my rights. They didn't and I held my ground. I made them look stupid. There is help there and a lot of child welfare agencies in some states are not so bad, if you know your rights. Good luck. I go on the 18+ site because I am dealing with the after affects of 2 placements and now living with an adult son who is a mess. You don't have too much leverage once they hit 18. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
