[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 578396, member: 3305"] Hi Karenvm, I have to agree with Buddy regarding pressing charges against your son for endangering your 9 yr old. Also agree that if you have some leverage and can give your difficult child the choice to either consent to treatment or face the possibility of being arrested that you may get his cooperation. In addition, if difficult child is refusing to go to school you can contact the school and they will get truency court involved. Other authorities along with all of your documention from the psychiatrists, psychologists, and case worker...as well as your own account of what is going on in the house right now, presented to a judge, should get the ball rolling for treatment I would think. Karen, I am so sorry you are going through all of this as I understand how scary it is to have a son you love so much get involved with drugs/alcohol and spiral out of control. Hope treatment is in your son's near future. Hang in there...we're listening. Hugs, LMS PS...What has your son been dxd with? If he possibly has Bipolar Disorder and has been on Lexapro that could make him manic. Is there a history of mental illness in the family? [/QUOTE]
