[QUOTE="OpenWindow, post: 82532, member: 45"] Welcome to the board. I'm not sure I can offer much help (my children are younger so I haven't gone through all you've gone through yet), but I wanted to respond to your post anyway to let you know that I don't think it's ever too late. You're getting him the help he needs now. It may be residential, or you may be able to keep him home. A couple of quick recommendations - if your son doesn't have an IEP at school I would try to get him one right away. I know he doesn't have too much longer to go in school but I believe if he has an IEP now it will help him get other services even after graduation, definitely if he goes on to college. There are also services you may be able to get through your state - we were able to send my difficult child away for respite weekends to a resident treatment facility. I have to get back to work now, but wanted to say hi and to welcome you to the board. Linda [/QUOTE]
