She self-reported to CPS and law enforcement,  but they have not done a formal removal yet, and their solutions involved bringing the child back home or kinship (not an option). The offending child is currently in a temporary behavioral hospital, and a Refusal to Assume Parental Responsibility was opened on my friend because she will not pick him up, especially not until he receives specialized treatment for sexual aggression. The other children deserve a safe home to heal. Has anyone been through this before? If, after treatment, she still does not feel like it's in the children's best interest for him to return home, what are her options? Resources:<ul><li><a href='https://creatingafamily.org/adoption/resources/finding-adoption-therapist/'>Resources for Finding an Adoption-Competent Therapist</a></li><li><a href='http://www.gilinstitute.com/'>Gil Institute for Trauma Recovery & Education</a></li><li><a href='https://creatingafamily.org/helping-a-child-heal-from-sexual-abuse/'>Helping a Child Heal from Sexual Abuse</a></li></ul><a rel="payment" href="https://creatingafamily.org/donation/">Support the show</a>Please leave us a rating or review.
