[QUOTE="klmno, post: 506696, member: 3699"] I look at it like this, if there's justifiable cause for a kid on probation to be turned over to dss then they go to court and get that done or report parent to cps and cps proves case in court, whatever. If they are standing there telling a parent to turn the kid over to dss as a parental placement, then they don't have a leg to stand on and a parent would be crazy to agree to that unless the parent thought the placement was in the best interest for the child. But again, this isn't a dss GH- it's post-d. Further, I could fight it because before difficult child was committed the first time and I couldn't get them to let him into a psychiatric Residential Treatment Center (RTC), I asked for post-d instead of commitment to Department of Juvenile Justice and that PO argued against it stating difficult child couldn't go to post-d due to nature of his charges. PO after first commitment, when I asked about post d in lieu of second commitment, told me once commited to Department of Juvenile Justice once, post-d is off the table as a possible sentence. Now I think a parent could still do a parental placement there if they chose to. Do you know that I tried to look into a shorter term placement option and PO got livid? I think I'll pick difficult child up, take him to GH and let some staff at GH know we are there, call PO from cell phone and say "we are here, do you have the court order the GH requires for him to be placed here? If not, where would you like me to take difficult child now because I can't just abandon him? Would you agree to me taking him home now? When you figure out where difficult child is legally reqd to be, call me." But if I don't pick difficult child up, he can claim parental abandonment. Also, in the parental agreement with gh, they expect a parent to relinquish them from responsibility for your kid having "mishaps" in their gh or anything except emergency medical treatment. [/QUOTE]
