[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 142448, member: 3626"] Unless, of course, the child thrives on the attention. One way to see if they really are serious is ask them how they plan to do it. If there are definite plans (although unrealistic), get them hospitalized NOW. If it is vague and you know your child is an attention seeker, that should be factored in in my opinion. And, Happy, I so understand that things are great as long child gets everything wanted. It really stinks. I do wonder, though, if the reason he didn't want to leave was a need in him to stay with his friend. If it was just to hang out, I agree he needed to come home. If he felt he was needed, I can understand his meltdown (doesn't make it right, but does make it a lot more understandable). [/QUOTE]
