[QUOTE="Burndoubt, post: 279458, member: 7493"] Thanks to you too, Mstang & Grace! *hugs & cookies all around* Okay, guys, husband just sat difficult child & me down for a talk a bit ago. Was very proud of how well he handled extremely difficult words. Ultimately (as far as where difficult child goes), it's up to husband, but he told difficult child that if his counselor recommends Residential Treatment Center (RTC), he'll have to take it as an informed decision and seriously consider what to do & where to go from there. He stated (to difficult child) that we're both scared, ALL scared of what may come next from difficult child, and that it's not right that his sisters should HAVE to be scared of him. Not right that he treats ME like he does. husband told difficult child that I should receive at LEAST the same respect he should give husband, if not MORE. Wow. I guess husband really [I]has[/I] been listening[I].[/I] I felt so proud that he stood up for us. I know it was hard, not to stand up, but to have to do it to your own son who just doesn't get it. He says (when prompted) he's sorry. When asked what that means, he just doesn't know. He knows what he's supposed to say, but doesn't truly understand why. It's heartbreaking. Anyway, the appointment with-the counselor is @8:15 tomorrow morning. Please keep us in your prayers/good thoughts! Goodnight! [/QUOTE]
