Diane,
Oh, it ended up being a very good thing.
It was the red flag, flares, warning shot across the bow that I had bee praying for.
My son has this innate ability to become people's 'pet', and they stop listening to me. Actually, I don't think they ever listened to me.
Now there are lots of people listening.
Social worker, house parents, supervisors, jrotc master sergeant, soon his judge, and always, his attachment therapist. Our AT is the only one that has been on board since day one. Oh, and he wasn't able to con the neuropsych.
Terrifying to live through, but now that I am through it, hopefully my son can be seen for who he really is.
His house teacher/mom told me "I never thought he would run, and it was over something so small."
I was able to respond appropriately and say something like "the problem all along is that he hasn't responded in proportion to the problem."
I really wanted to say "duh, have you been listening?"
Oh well....so glad for here.
