[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 310970, member: 7083"] Update: difficult child 2's mom called me at 4am and he's home. He was hiding in the field at the end of the street that the complex is on, without a coat (it's 38 degrees outside) and scared because the cops were outside the apartments he was going to go back to. So, he's home and safe, and I don't feel bad about him being out in the cold without a coat because it got him home. His mom told him he could have come to my house and he said, "Hell no", so he's obviously mad at me. I can handle that. I'd rather have him mad at me and safe, then out doing what he was doing. Or going back to the friends and drinking and doing more drugs. I love this kid like he's my own. And I would have done the same thing had it been my own. It's just that when he gets mad, he gets enraged and there is no reasoning with him at all. He needs the right medications. Soon, he'll be 18 and there will be nothing we can do. We have a very small window of opportunity to try to get him to see the light. Please keep good thoughts. He's not a bad kid, no matter how mad he makes me and no matter how often he shoots himself in the foot. :raspberry-tounge: He has such a beautiful heart. You should see him with younger kids and animals - he's so protective and nurturing. Please rattle some beads that the psychiatrist will wise up and get him on medications that actually help him. And that we - or someone, anyone - can get through to him. Thanks for listening. [/QUOTE]
