[QUOTE="CAmom, post: 19771, member: 1835"] Oh, thank you Karen. I also can't believe it's been four months! To tell the truth, it's actually been nice, not having to worry about where he is and what he's doing--knowing he's safe. Of course, we miss him, but I think driving away past the street he lives on as we get onto the freeway home every two weeks is the hardest for me. I feel as though every cell in my body is reaching out, wanting to make that turn back onto his street. I still believe he's better off where he is at the moment. I've asked myself the hypothetical question many times--what would I say IF (and I understand that, once placement is ordered, it has to be seen through until the program is completed) I was asked whether or not his dad and I would be willing to have him home and supervise the program from home. I hate to say it, but I'm afraid, in my heart, we couldn't say yes. We both believe he really is where he has to be at this point in his life. Thanks for your positive thoughts and words... [/QUOTE]
