[QUOTE="SunnyFlorida, post: 102734, member: 696"] Coming in late...as usual. Sorry. DO NOT PAY FOR ANYTHING. DO NOT ALLOW THE STATE TO SUCKER YOU INTO LETTING HIM COME HOME. Did you hear me? It's the states's problem, let them figure it out. If these states weren't so stingy in their funding, maybe there would be more services. I betcha, they'll find a place just until he turns 18 and then turn him loose. Remember, some kids are for whatever reason...damaged. Some are just broken. I realize that sounds cold and eyelids maybe popping out. But it's only after having two difficult child's of my own and being on the board for years that I feel I can say that. In my town, one of the school board members adopted a child. They have tried everything that everyone here has done and recently gave him back to the state. The family has to pay child support, and they had to basically be charged with a child abuse abandonment charge in order for this child to have services. This child is younger than falling star though so the state HAS to do something. You and df have done extraordinary and above and beyond what is probably humanly possible. It's time now to let whatever will be...be. [/QUOTE]
