[QUOTE="slsh, post: 417192, member: 8"] Hi again - sorry I didn't make it back (life happens, :winking: ). You've gotten some excellent advice, so I won't repeat it. How did the intake go? What is the plan? How is the rest of the family holding up? Sometimes our kids' behaviors and choices can be all-consuming for the rest of the family, and special effort needs to be made to normalize things as much as possible, not just for siblings but also for you and husband. In my experience, it's near-impossible to get a difficult child (especially one in crisis) to appreciate what a negative impact their choices have on the family, much less to get them to give a darn. So you need to try to carve out time for sibs, for you and husband, to decompress. I hope things are heading in a good direction for you guys and that you've gotten some good supports in place, not only for difficult child but also for the rest of the family. Update us when you can. [/QUOTE]
