[QUOTE="DDD, post: 320840, member: 35"] I think I understand your frustration and I'm sure I understand that you want to [B]know[/B] the choices and the procedures. on the other hand, a case "could" be made that as government employees they shouldn't be dedicating extra time reassuring a parent of what steps to take "should" they get a job out of country etc. I have no idea how many kids are in the facility with difficult child or how many kids are in the system locally but, for the sake of argument, if only ten percent had family's facing life altering choice the staff would easily be unable to meet the needs of the teens. Have the HI people given you a time frame for their commitment? If the job goes through, do you know how much time you will have to accept or decline and do you know how long before they will want you there? Between difficult child's complex issues and confinement, the dog issues, the house foreclosure, financial worries, the need to get rid of stuff out of your house, and then the very extensive stress of HI or no HI...you've got a heck of alot on your plate. Believe me I would want answers as much as you do but I'm not optimistic you are going to get what you want now with so much up in the air. I still think :blushing: it's best to focus on what you can do right now to ease the future. Goodwill? Garage sale? Whatever makes you feel like you're stepping forward. DDD [/QUOTE]
