[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 374653, member: 3419"] Welcome, Jana. I am so sorry that the system is failing you. In VA, where I live, there is a movement afoot (with-a lot of help from the newspapers) to have the courts separate out mental health transgressions from criminal intent. Hard to separate sometimes, but the stories that have run in the newspaper have dealt with-really obvious cases to it's easy to see where the system is broken. In the meantime, my first thought was to appeal the decision, and my second thought was foster care. I don't really understand about paying into the system (I saw that in another note the other day, too.) I thought it was state funded. But maybe when you relinquish a teen, and it's "therapeutic" foster care, you're dealing with-a different animal and that's where the $ comes in. [/QUOTE]
