[QUOTE="klmno, post: 336302, member: 3699"] I like Susie's idea- and I agree that there is probably a whole lot of manipulation in this approach from kt. And I doubt giving her cigs is going to stop it, based on the history Linda has posted. To claarify my earlier post- what happens in this state is if/when a juvenile gets in big trouble legally (and unfortunately I think this is a future possibility for kt), a family assessment by a certain division of DSS is done. This isn't CPS but another section of DSS. They do not have to see abuse or neglect or the typpical stuff for the child to be removed from home. All they have to determine is that the particualr home is not conducive to the child/teen staying out of trouble legally and sometimes they change the kid's "placement" just to see if it helps if the kid repetitively gets into trouble. What caused my concern in this case is that if I remember correctly, someone in kt's life had implied before that maybe Linda "couldn't" take care of kt. So I didn't mean to imply that you could likely end up in jail or have cps called over this, just to suggest that you cover all bases- but Susie's suggestion would do that well. After all, following professional's advice was the only thing that kept the judge and DSS on my side. [/QUOTE]
