[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 420150, member: 84"] I know I couldn't do that. No matter how bad they were. I'd at least have to check on them occasionally. I do know that when Nichole was admitted to psychiatric hospital that we were the only parents I ever saw visit her unit. And it wasn't just husband and I, but the whole family went to visit, including her boyfriend. Staff was stunned, but very very pleased to see it. Even Aubrey was allowed in. And they gave us extra time because Aubrey was a newborn and I told them I was concerned that maternal/newborn bond might not form correctly. They gave us a very long time to visit each day scheduling it between things they had her doing. I know from Nichole herself, that we all showed up to support her during that time, made a huge impact on her. If we didn't visit........I could see her feeling very abandoned. How could any parent risk that? Even if the visits can't be frequent? I'm not one of them for sure. Not to mention the whole monitoring their progress, is the treatment plan working.......are they treating my kid right things. [/QUOTE]
