[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 707386, member: 18958"] ksm. I do not know how they calculate parental share of costs for child support. I am sorry. I guess the logic of placement is "you make your bed you sleep in it." I mean, letting the extent of the child's unraveling determine the level of intervention. Stupid. When by throwing resources at the child initially, could well circumvent later problems, save the child and family. I am sorry. Nobody could have done this better than you. I wish I had had somebody like you in my corner. My life would have been different. Daughter knows she has you. Why she has to unravel is a mystery to me. My son did too. I think these kids feel the compulsion to travel down the same roads that did their parents. Not by any genetic predetermination, but for symbolic reasons. To explore who they are and who they are not. My son after 10 years lost is coming back. He is becoming again the child he was, grown up. I try to not regret the lost years (that I lost with him). Instead I just feel gratitude. There is no way to know how long she will feel the need to act out. She may not know, either. Very soon, I hope you are able to get your sanity back, your house and calm back, your joy back. What an odyssey this has been. [/QUOTE]
