Quote From: sonsissuesHelp is not always easy to find for children who become dangerous. My son is also 13, he has been dignosed with Aspergers. Trying to get councling for him and even with insurance, its to expensive, I can barely keep up with the medication payments. As a mother I try not to cover up what he does, and I will not give up on him, we do the best we can for the time being. I have read books and checked the internet, but still I can't help my son. Insurance company would not let him stay in the hosptial for extra help. He is a good person, who needs help. I feel helpless!!
I have a grandson that lived with us that is in the same shape as your son. We finally had to sign him over to the state for the help we need. DCFS is still trying to have us take training for him.But, he was in Boys & Girls Town for 13 months and they were able to do absolutely nothing. Yet, the state thinks we will learn how to cope in 6 months. It was so hard to do what we did, but when you reach out for help and there isn't anymore, what do you do? We have cried many tears over this boy. Yet, his mom is holding things up because she won't sign and she also won't take him. He has abused his little brother and tried to abuse him mom. The state will help if you do sign him. Terrible isn't it? We are in constant contact with the state and with the mental health department.
He will eventually go to a group home that deals with boys with these problems. I hope you will be able to get help for you son soon. God Bless.
