[QUOTE="klmno, post: 247126, member: 3699"] He never called. :( Well, let's see.....how do Latin and Creative Fashion sound for electives for a 14yo difficult child entering high school? Actually, Theater Arts might put a thorn in his side more than Creative Fashion. ha ha ha.... dyfunctional....no, no, no.... Seriously, he's mad because he's blaming me because he has to go to court and will be locked up somewhere. He's locked up now. He ought to be grateful I've done everything I can to get him to Residential Treatment Center (RTC) instead of letting him be sent to state juvy. Instead, he's mad because I "snitched" on him and called cops. Never mind what he did. I seriously do not think this is an issue that family therapy can fix. I really think he needs a therapist that helps him understand that it is HIS OWN life to live and control and take responsibility for. Why do they want to stress it is a family problem until the kid is around 18 then all of a sudden, the parent is at fault for not getting out of the kid's life quick enough and forcing the difficult child to take responsibility for their own actions? And then he called- he seems perfectly fine now. Who knows. So, he wants Spanish and Study Hall. He seems much better about the idea of Residential Treatment Center (RTC) but if he gets juvy, I hate to think how he'll react. We agreed that I'll visit him Sun. afternoon. [/QUOTE]
