[QUOTE="slsh, post: 461590, member: 8"] So many positives here - really. 1. Staff took her running seriously (flashing back to umpteen gazillion midnight calls where thank you was "AWOL" and a missing persons report was filed - but that was it). 2. Police actually *looked* for her. 3. Geographically, if you're going to have a runner, I would rather have one where she is rather than in the city. I know the worry, and I'm glad you and husband have plans in place as far as sibs. While I think she's more focused on her own wants (center-of-the-universe syndrome) and it's probably unlikely she'd come after them or you, I think it's very wise to have contingencies in place. on the other hand, she's crossed a new line at Residential Treatment Center (RTC) and ... well, let's face it, for some of our kids there are simply no consequences that will deter them. Hopefully staff will get that and truly keep her on 100%. I'm so sorry - those middle-of-the-night calls really are heart-stopping. Hope you have a restful weekend. [/QUOTE]
