[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 356101, member: 1514"] There is no reason you cannot introduce the parent report into evidence. You give it to his PO, his defense attorney, the CA and send it in advance to the judge. Im going to be honest here, I dont see how you can just give up or walk away from a 15 year old who hasnt done something horrendous to you. You just have to work the system as good or as bad as that system is. If they order outpatient therapy, do it. We jumped over so many hoops it wasnt funny. Did they do any good? Who knows. Maybe getting into the mental health system can get him access to mental health group homes. If nothing else, you are biding time till he is 18. There is nothing to say that getting in trouble as a kid means you will always be in trouble. People can change. He may get tired of this. Or not. But if you arent standing behind him it wont be as easy for him. I wouldnt work against the system while he is a minor. Thats just too big a risk. But thats just me. [/QUOTE]
