[QUOTE="klmno, post: 384122, member: 3699"] Those are the reasons I don't think you have to worry about them taking over your life. I think they would probably be upset with the sd in the long run, but I can't guarantee that of course. I'm just trying to play it out in my mind: Scenario 1: Shari goes with documentation and IEP in hand. They throw out services available. Shari explains what has been tried, what is being used currently, points out that of course she has sought these out as she finds them and thinks they might work, here is IEP that hasn't completely been followed by sd. So committee, is there anything else you have available that might help my son? If they have any question about homelife, let's say by a dss rep who doesn't know you from adam and just wants a brief description, give it and then offer to let them do a family assessment. (That isn't the same as a CPS investigation, that's a home visit without a walk-thru and it's no investigation, it's more of a social history of wee.) Also, under these circumstances, if they offer any service that you don't want you can refuse it. Scenario 2: Shari doesn't go, someday another agency is involved. What does sd say when all this comes to a head- whether thru due process or other agency involvement? "We were willing and tried to get more for him but she wasn't willing to go to committee to discuss available options". Then what? And no, I don't think they are going to put wee in juvie at his age. But he's going to be in that sd a long time, right? That's just my visualization and yes, solely based on the kind of koi I went thrur with my difficult child. [/QUOTE]
