I am sorry, redheaded. I actually used to work in group homes too. I am a SW, and that seems to be the 'starting off" position for lots of SWs. I really did not mean to put you or anyone else down, and I am sorry for that.
I know that the staff couldn't confirm that he lived there, but they didn't even bother to check his call list. Since we are on the list, they CAN confirm that he is there and let us speak with him. M is not in a group home for behavioral reasons. He is at that age (and sex, I might add) that there are not a ton of foster homes willing to accept him. He is in the regular classroom, and doesn't not have acting out behaviors. It is just hard to think about my child living under someone elses rules. And I know from experience what the baseline teens are like in group homes. I just want to get him out of there.
Oh- I used to work for Regoin V Services when I lived in Nebraska years ago. Ever heard of them?
Thanks for the feedback, and I did not mean any offence.
Jill
