[QUOTE="BloodiedButUnbowed, post: 734084, member: 13303"] There is no shame in admitting that our children are out of control. My family is in the same situation. Their lack of love and concern for us is very painful. You don't need to tell the judge every detail. Just let your attorney handle it. Or if you want to say something, simply state that you believe father can provide the structure and discipline son needs. To be honest - and I hate to sound heartless - you may be better off NOT being legally responsible for any trouble your son may cause. I wouldn't be surprised one bit if Dad can't handle him either. One step at a time. He may need to live in a structured setting, such as a group home, for a period of time. That will be up to his dad. We have given up hope of functioning as actual parents to our two, our best hope is that they will consent to speaking to us politely on a semi-regular basis. In our situation right now even that is unlikely at this time. I hope for a better outcome in your situation. [/QUOTE]
