Seussical
I don't know where my time goes. Having a job is making life zoom past me so quickly. I decided to come check in and realized I hadn't been on in a very long time. I don't know how it happens.
We had a meeting with difficult child 2's JCO today. He has a new one as with the budget cuts his old one lost his job. We all know how fun it is when you get a new person on board. With all the history it can be so fun catching them up to date. Boy was I amazed by the fact she had obviously read his information. He was familiar with the case. She knew about everything. She has met him and talked about how she could see his manipulation. I was really surprised. Then she mentioned that we need to work on his plan for when he turns 18. Now that is in March of 2011. So now we have someone that doesn't want to wait til the last minute. I was baffled momentarily. She said we would meet monthly to make sure things stayed on track and to keep us up to date on things. Again a moment of bafflement. We have had to beg for time in the past. This woman seems on top of her game. So we made the decision with her (something we have talked over before) that we will have him civilly committed when he ages out of the system. He isn't safe and continues to not work to be safe.
Hope everyone is doing well. I will try and get here more often.
