[QUOTE="Bunny, post: 572708"] Welcome to our little corner of the internet. We are all supportive here. First I just want to say that this is NOT NOT NOT your fault. I hate when other people tell you that you must not be parenting him correctly or he would not behave the way that he does. That is just not the case! Do not believe that this is somehow your doing. I was told that for a very long time and it took way longer than it should have for me to get help because at every turn I was told that I needed to be a better parent and everything would be fine. That's just not how it works sometimes. A parenting class is not going to help a child like this. I think that JJJ's suggestion to get CPS involved if the Residential Treatment Center (RTC) sends him home if a good idead. I know it sounds very scary, but they may be able to open up resources that are not available to you otherwise. You say that his bio mom was neglectful and abusive to him. I'm guessing that she and your husband were not together when difficult child was little and she left him with his dad? Did he ever seek treatment or counseling for him when he was younger? [/QUOTE]
