[QUOTE="Steely, post: 97344, member: 3301"] Well first of all welcome! But I am sorry you had to find us. I understand how difficult it is raising kiddos like this, especially once they enter the teen years. My biggest question for you, is, what types of services do you have in place from the school district? Do you have an IEP in place at school based on his emotional disturbances? Is or can he be in an alternative school? If the school cannot teach him because he is always truant, in some cities the police will actually come and pick the student up and take him to school, if this has been worked out in an IEP. Also, if the school cannot appropriately educate your son, they have to pay for and provide a place that does, even if that means a residential treatment facility. You have a lot of rights, ones you may not even know about, because they are not being talked about a lot by the school administration. Do you have an advocate that is working with you? If not, start learning all you can about the rights you are entitled to, and start demanding these services from the state for your boy. Others will be along with more, but you have found a soft place to land. [/QUOTE]
