[QUOTE="DDD, post: 249852, member: 35"] :whiteflag: I guess, my CD friend, that I've got to surrender...at least a bit. You are going in circles and straying way off course by trying to analyze the rights, the laws, the motivations, the backgrounds AND the intentions of a whole group of people. People you barely know and people who barely know you. I don't know how to help you. :frowny: I don't even "know" that my ideas are "the" right ideas. Rats! My very sincere, caring and honest opinion is that you are in a whirlpool of concerns. You are rightfully vulnerable from the stress of the past two years. Your intentions and goals are honest and honorable. "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I can not change" (That includes the past, the personalities of others, the influence and interference of others, your past experiences and the last few years of difficult child's crisis) "the courage to change the things I might" (That includes keeping coherent and chronological records to document events and therefore having the capacity to present info to change what might be incorrectly offered...AND...caring for yourself in a healthier way) "the wisdom to know the difference" (You can [B]not[/B] interpret the law for the Judge or the attorneys. You can [B]not[/B] change the mindset of Department of Juvenile Justice personnel. You can [B]not[/B] change your bro. You can [B]not [/B]live with yourself comfortably if you say to H with them, they can do whatever they want to with my son.) I repeat the Serenity prayer at least once a day. Like you I am fairly smart...lol. I think and rethink things WAY too much. I absolutely know beyond a shadow of a doubt that "the system" is faulty and my child has suffered as a result. BUT...I have to accept the things I cannot change, change the things I can and focus on making sure I know the difference. You remain in my thoughts and prayers but :happy: you're running around the tree like (hmmm...who was that in the old kids story???). Was it a tiger that turned into butter going around and around the same tree trying to avoid ??? Brer Rabbit???????? :winking: My memory is shot but that image seems on target, my friend. Hugs.
