[QUOTE="rejectedmom, post: 129029, member: 2315"] BBK, thank you for the prayers. difficult child truly needs divine intervention to learn to love himself and stay out of trouble PonyGirl, difficult child was crying last night and asked me how he was going to do prison again. He said that the last time it almost killed him (which is true) I answered "one day at a time and an improved relationship with God and yourself". in my opinion, We need a better system. One that doesn't put addicts and the mentally ill in jail for using, but rather into rehabs and psychiatric centers. The police officer saw that difficult child didn't belong in jail for this and just issued a warning but the PO is very erratic in her dealings with my son. She can be overly harsh or very caring depending on her mood and stress level at the time of her dealings with my son. She knows his long history of mental health issues and she often discounts it and tells me that it is all an act and that he can do better if he is forced to. Three years into this case and she sees he cannot manage his own life yet she still sometimes reverts back to this opinion in her dealings with him. Consequently, I cannot even begin to predict how she will handle this. I can only wait and see. -RM [/QUOTE]
