[QUOTE="exhausted, post: 446499, member: 11001"] Thanks for asking Patriotgirl. It was a really nice visit. I decided to "chill" and let her do her thing. She did get her room organized. Sorted clothes for garbage and goodwill. She still needs guidance about organizing, it's not her strong suit. She was happy. pleasant and not demanding. She read all the Harry Potter Books in the last 2 months (a miracle because her usual fair is dark stuff and nonfiction about gangsters and serial killers), so we borrowed several of the last few movies so we could eat popcorn and have a family movie fest. We enjoyed it as she did. She gave us all the inside info so we could understand what was going on (it has been too long since I read those books).Her therapist wants a team meeting this week to discuss discharge plans! We have many decisions to make about school so we better get in gear. With our family therapist, we have written up the family rules and expectations and what will happen should she begin her truency or running behaviors (she has court orders to support us on this as well). We did this last time when she was released from Residential Treatment Center (RTC) to no avail. Hope she gets its end game now because a judge is involved. I do think she will try to get freedoms before she has earned them. We told her she will not ever be left alone or go to a friends house until she has 1 quarter of good attendance and good grades, no pot smoking, no running. She's been in over 2 years of Residential Treatment Center (RTC) now and we need to keep things structured and do a gradual release of responsibility to her. [/QUOTE]
