[QUOTE="mstang67chic, post: 24502, member: 2459"] Hospitalizing our kids is never easy but it's a good thing. He is getting the help he needs. I think, in part, because of the stigma that is still out there for mental issues, people have issues with it. But if your child had to be hospitalized for medical issues, no one would think twice. I look at it as the same thing. There are health issues to be dealt with, whether mental or medical. They go, they get the help and they come home. Doesn't make it any easier by any means but it's the same concept. So for you and difficult child, I know it's hard but it sounds like your difficult child has a good doctor and will get stable. That's what's important right now. As for your ex......the next time he starts accusing, arguing and behaving like a jerk, I would just calmly tell him that if he is questioning anything, he's more than welcome to read all of the reports and speak with the doctor. You are doing right by your child, you are the one who is dealing with it and any problems this guy has are just that...His. He can say anything he wants but keep rememberering that you know what is going on and are doing the best thing for your son. I know it's a hard situation but hang in there. It's good that your difficult child is getting help and you can use this time while he's there to take a breath or two and recharge a little. Sending Hugs. [/QUOTE]
