[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 750916, member: 18958"] There is a famous book here (and movie) called [U]Son Rise.[/U] It is by a father whose son was diagnosed as autistic with some of the same characteristics as your son. He has a particular slant on things. He and his wife did interventions with their child. The child was younger though. I agree with Jaypee, that you are carrying this all alone. This is what is doing you in. It would do ANYBODY in. I am not criticizing you! I don't want you to add one more thing to your burden! My point in asking you to stay with us, is so we can support you. Even sharing the burden, the feelings, helps, in my view, to not be so alone, helps. To share the helplessness. There are mothers on this forum who have gone through similar. Did I miss your son's school status? In the United States the school district would be responsible to pay for residential treatment. But you say that B has gone twice and it did not help. Is there a way that he could stay in a residential setting, and not come home? Does not the system see any responsibility to protect your other children, besides pulling them? If so, that is unconscionable. [/QUOTE]
