[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 737572, member: 18958"] Welcome, knife. There are no right, one size fits all answers. It is just to do this one step at a time. There are parents who relinquish parental rights so that their kids get treatment to which they are otherwise ineligible or beyond a family's means. Sometimes, with an IEP, the school district pays for a residential placement. Nobody can advise you what to do. Because they will not experience the consequences nor do they experience what you do. Some parents have family that steps in. That can be a mixed bag. How does she behave with others? At school? She is close to the old enough for job corps. They are a free, residential job training program for youth in the USA run by the government. They take kids with disabilities, challenges and problematic behaviors, to a point. They are well supervised there. There are also programs like boys town. I do not know the particulars and how a child becomes eligible. There are a number of parents who post here who have been through or are going through what you describe. They will come along shortly. Nani is an organization of parents with mentally ill children and family. Many of us go to al anon to learn how to deal with an I'll and/or adducted child. You don't mention it I missed if drugs are a factor. This always makes it worse. Anyway. Welcome. You are not alone. Keep posting. It helps a great deal. Take care. [/QUOTE]
