And I can't even be upset about it. husband called to tell me it happened and I went yes and rolled back over on the bed. I don't mean to be callous about it but it happened during a restraint and truthfully with as many as he ends up in I am surprised something hasn't happened before. He has been doing a lot of attention seeking behaviour. He also wants to change placement. (His sister difficult child 1 switched a few times) He wants that privaledge (that is how he looks at it.) So how do I know that the finger break happened in the restraint. How do I know he didn't do it to himself?
In the last couple of months he somehow smuggled razors into his room, tried to stab staff with the plastic spreader in a cheese and cracker pack (I tried to picture that one), swallowed glass, swallowed a screw, swallowed rubber off the bottom of his shoe, peeled the tiles off his floor, run away (he went straight to the police station)from the facility etc, etc. :rolleyes:
How am I supposed to get worked up about a broken finger. I was proud of husband though. When difficult child 2 got on the phone after staff had told him about it and difficult child 2 was whining about it he told him if he had behaved and not needed the restraint then it wouldn't have happened would it. (For husband that is totalling ground breaking as he tends to baby difficult child 2 even with all of the behaviors). :warrior:
I have a feeling that if he does leave this facility he will just go to a detention center.
As annoyed as I am with the situation with difficult child 1 this situation has me numb. :crazy:
