[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 392006, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]While the meeting didn't offer you any help, you do know where you stand. Have you made all the "powers that be" in that room aware of your house rules, the line in the sand as it were? In other words, have you let all those there know when enough is enough with your difficult child? I ask this because I was threatened with all sorts of this & that when I refused to pick up my difficult child son from the hospital ~ he was in no shape to come home. Child abandonment, unfit parent (they'd be out to pick up kt), etc, etc, etc. Nothing happened. There aren't enough resources in the system to pursue this legally. Your difficult child is at that magic age where the system tends to look away & put the resources that are available toward the younger children. I say this because I wouldn't take the label unfit mother either; AND all the threats in the world would not allow me to bring a dangerous & unstable child back home. I told the hospital & the SWs & such that I would bring wm home if they were willing to sign a letter of liability stating in the effect that wm does ...... x, y, z they would take responsibility because of the unwillingness to further treat an already known unstable child. No one signed it - go figure. [/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
