I just put a post up pretty similar to yours, only when we were forced to pick our child up from a facility because the insurance company denied our 7 appeals to keep him there after he physically attacked me with a kitchen knife, found pictures of him ripping apart animals, and multiple threats to kill people including his entire family, we brought him home only to have him attack me again after 3 days. he punched my husband in the face and we kicked his ass out! I know that's horrible to say, but we told him he had to leave, right in front of the police officers. They didn't say a thing. He then called CPS on us, claiming abandonment, but when they came for their investigation, I showed them his files, and they understood that our 4 younger kids were not safe and neither were we. So the CPS caseworker actually wrote up our case closed letter saying that he was not allowed back in the house or with the family until he gets treatment. I am sorry you are going through this! It is super scary, and incredibly hard to have to keep your kids safe from your other kid, and pick and choose like that. Sometimes he still texts me, either he is happy and wants to brag about how great he is doing without us, which is typically a made up story - he always lies - or he is drunk and wants to fight with me.
