So we just joined the "had to call 911" club, and it sucks. 17 yo difficult child (suspected FASD, low IQ) has cuts all up and down his arms, had been hiding a knife in his room since we took away electronics. I'm sitting in the hospital now. psychiatrist says she wants to keep him overnight because he's suicidal. difficult child is furious with us and says he won't talk to us for months. He'll be transferred to a psychiatric ward for a full evaluation. So ... What do we do when he comes back home? I assume he'll be on medications.
