[QUOTE="klmno, post: 245184, member: 3699"] Thanks, Janet- I'll check into both. As far as income- difficult child doesn't have any but if he did, it would all be going to pay restitution. Mine- well, it was zero for 2 months. Now, it will vary for an undetermined amount of time because as I'm able to get back to work and clear up things standing in the way of working 40 hrs/week, the place I work doesn't have enough to keep me busy 40 hrs/week, so we are kind of taking it a week at a time. IOW, I don't know what it will be- it will vary until something settles/gives in one direction or another. I'm not so worried about difficult child qualifying after he comes home though. A big issue right now is if the legal authorities agree that difficult child going to Residential Treatment Center (RTC) is an acceptable punishment and route for him, the question of who/what agency will pay for it could undo the entire option. But, if difficult child was on medicaid and medicaid paid (difficult child will have a psychiatrist's recommendation for it), then it's all the easier for the legal authorities to accept this option. Given that I was "the victim" in this case, the CA's office gives consideration to what I'd like to see as difficult child's punishment, so it will be much easier to get them to agree than it has been in the past when difficult child broke a law "out in the community".
