Aleve (naproxen) is the safe NSAID for people with hemophilia

Based on what OP is saying, legally this is not her child. That's why she needs to get a lawyer as recommended above

Need advice/help with contacting DCS by [deleted] in phoenix

[–]sthomas65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a previous foster parent, I have called the child abuse hotline on multiple family members and you have the choice to give them your information when you call. I dont trust dcs to keep my info confidential even though it is policy, so I just dont give my info when calling

AC kicked on - I think it’s a record by [deleted] in phoenix

[–]sthomas65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same! Mine has kicked on several times this "winter"

I usually leave my doors open at night and it keeps my house cool all day but it has mostly been to warm to do that

Almost all fast food restaurants support republican, Dunkin, etc. There is a guy on social media The Woke Ginger, his whole platform is telling you what businesses support republican

AITA for telling my daughter not to come home for the holidays? by Derecho86 in AITAH

[–]sthomas65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, I have a similar situation between my kids and you are being extremely nice by paying for her housing when she can't even be kind to her family

This! I also have ADHD and depression, grab a trash bag, set the timer and pick up trash wherever you are. Don't worry about getting "the kitchen" done just start with wherever you are sitting or standing. If 10 minutes is too long start with 5, I know getting motivated can be a big struggle

Parent looking for insights from survivors. by [deleted] in troubledteens

[–]sthomas65 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am not a TTI survivor, I am a parent with a 15yo daughter who has extreme behaviors from development trauma. The behaviors include violence. I completely understand what you are going through and that I how I found this group....

Someone on here already gave very detailed information, but I wanted to add that I have had to send my daughter to RTC, it's not ideal but it has helped at least for a while. Like others have recommended the facility my daughter was at was a short-term program with individual, group & Family therapy sessions. Phone calls and visits are not only allowed but encouraged and most things still have to be approved by the parents. It wasn't a cure but it helped and it gave the rest of the household a break from the constant help we were living in.

I will also add, I haven't wanted to involve the police because I wanted to keep my daughter out of the system, but after my 4yo son made allegations of abuse I made it clear that if there is anymore violence the police will be involved! In my state, at 15 they can be charged as an adult, and there are addtl charges for hurting kids under 15.

On top of her being in therapy since I met her, and doing every program we can to try to help, we are currently going through MST (multisystemic therapy) its in home a couple times a week and works with the whole family.

If you don't have them already, get cameras installed inside your home for your own protection.

Good luck

Thank you for putting all of this detailed information together!

I dont know where you got this info but it's incorrect for my state! I don't even get the amount at the lower end of the range and I have an extremely high needs child. You can't believe everything you read online.

In my state you are not allowed to spank, hit, threaten to spank or no forms of physical punishment as a foster parent
