[QUOTE="JKF, post: 589347, member: 12470"] You know CJ - that thought did cross my mind but I really think that difficult child needs to stay at Safe Haven and work hard to pay that fine himself. He needs to realize and understand that this is his responsibility due to his actions and if he wants to go to Idaho bad enough he'll have to work hard and take care of his fines. I honestly feel that if the fine is paid FOR him he'll think he "got away with it" and I can't see him working hard to pay anyone back if that happens. So at least here he's in Safe Haven and it will be a condition of his probation that he remain there, get counseling, take medications, and comply. If he doesn't want to do that it's on him. I just can't do anymore to help. I've reached the end of my rope and I need to climb back up to where I was before I allowed this to take over my life again. I know I jumped the gun when I agreed to the Idaho plan and bought the ticket but it was more out of desperation because he was on the streets with nowhere to go. I'll be taking $127 loss for the plane ticket but it is what it is. [/QUOTE]
