[QUOTE="Steely, post: 160488, member: 3301"] True for some circumstances - however - I have had difficult child in phosph for up to 3 weeks at some places because he was suicidal and violent. A lot of it depends on the city, the doctors., the insurance, as well as how pushy and adamant you are as a parent that the kid is not ready to return home. In fact the last place difficult child was, they did not want to release him after a week, but because I felt they were doing such a poor job of treating him, I wanted him out. I actually had to sign an AMA waiver to get him released which was a huge surprise to me. I know this is quite opposite from the norm, but I think we have to realize it varies for each situation and each person. Personally I would never rule phosph out as an option because even 3 days can be a wake up call, a fresh set of eyes, and new connections for the parent to make with doctors and counselors. [/QUOTE]
