[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 579037, member: 1233"] They can't put him in a group home with-o your okay. Around here LOTS of the hospitals have group homes and inpatient wards, but they cannot just put people there. Once there, they cannot keep them there with-o consent. Ask the doctor to refer to the autism people and if he says no, insist on a reason. If he won't see your point of view, don't cancel appts wtih him, but look for a new doctor from the autism group. Be ready to educate the new in home person on autism and if they won't learn? Toss them out and complain to the doctor. NOT saying not to listen to them, but if they flat out insist on not taking an autism approach, you don't wnat or need them. I know this will be hard after all the years iwth husband, but from now on, if you instincts say no, you say no. You can explain WHY, but if your instincts are screaming, listen to them no matter what anyone else says. The biggest mistakes I have made as a person and parent all happened because I didn't listen to my instincts. Many parents I know say the same thing. Give yourself permission to follow your gut, and don't apologize for it. Not even if it angers husband. If he is abusive over something? Call the cops. You don't need to tolerate that. [/QUOTE]
