[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 575320, member: 1514"] JJJ, do you actually feel that anything that was done during her time away or even what treatment she received during the time with you actually made any difference? I often wonder about that. I sort of think that all we did was contain them and attempt to keep them safe from themselves as best as we could for the time that we could. Im not sure that anything truly helped in any considerable way. The actual fact that she thinks its okay to associate with a 16 year old when she is 18 says a lot. And for heavens sake what is that mother thinking? Does she have the money to live closer to you or would that simply be a pipe dream? I would think it would be very hard for her to leave the placement she is in and go out there into the real world on whatever amount of money she gets and live. Maybe the placement needs to do some reality work with her on what things really cost out there by getting a paper and see what apartments cost, what transportation would cost, what feeding herself or two of them would cost, what incidentals would cost, what he medication would cost, what clothing would cost, etc. Then see if she thinks she can afford it. I doubt it. [/QUOTE]
