I'm surprised that they would put your son in a group home as opposed to Res. Tx. Given the seriousness of the offense, the lack of remorse and the threats, that just doesn't make sense. How did the visit go?
We just started in-school treatment for our guy this week. He has to go to the treatment room in the morning before school, all the teachers are told he's part of it, he has to have lunch with the treatment people and kids, and then afterschool they meet and talk, kind of a group counseling. They also check on him in each class (he's in 9th grade). So needless to say its going to be a control issue which is one of his triggers. I figure this will make or break him, next stop residential.
You've asked about bonding. I just don't know. His mom was so wasted those first several years it's hard to say if she ever gave him bonding time. I know he's bonded to his brother which is one of the hardest parts about this situation is that they are split up for the first time ever.
