[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 179474"] Personally, I think I will always be willing to provide some extra help in this arena...and difficult child has done some growth in this area and will be expected to do some more in the coming years. Due to its importance, we want to help...but there are limits. Not too long ago, difficult child missed three appointments in a row with her t-doctor and I called the t-doctor and put an end to it. No more private appointments until further notice and difficult child went to a few group sessions at the community center. Sadly, this group was VERY unorganized. difficult child had an emergency, I okay'd her going back to her private therapist temporarily. I have noticed that she is doing a much better job at making her appointments and setting up reminders now. difficult child has been making almost all her appointments for a long time and takes her own medication. We take care of [I]ordering [/I]her medications now. I think, in time...slowly...but surely...we will have her do the ordering...with an occasional glance to make sure it is getting done. Assuming she continues to at least meet us halfway, we would be willing to provide financial assitance to pay for them a little longer and then for emergencies. (Not forever). It is not an open slate by any means...but there is probably a little more leeway with reference to this area since good health care is a major part of the equation when it comes to stability.
