Maybe somebody needs to show her what living on the streets really looks like. If you had custody of your child and the hospital allowed someone to visit without your permission, I'd be talking to an attorney.
The run away plan isn't optional. If she thinks living on the street is fine, she has to let you know what she'll do for food and shelter. If she doesn't do it, she can't do anything. If she runs, you call the police.
You're the parent, your daughter doesn't get a vote when it comes to serious matters that affect her welfare. Also, when measuring her room, of course she's going to accuse you of trying to get rid of her. Simply remind her that she's the one who said she was leaving. Or you could simply act shocked and say "Why would I want to do that, you're so much fun to be around? I love being threatened and screamed at." then continue measuring. If she knows her words are bothering you, she'll use them more.
Is your therapist advising you at all on how to parent this child and deal with her threats?
