Well my wife and I have decided that he will not live on the street. As a Paramedic I see kids on the street and could not bear to see him living like that.
As for the courts, we have tried to get him commited and they have to appoint him an attorney. We have presented out case and they say that it is hearsay and that he has his rights. We have hired an attorney and he is up against the wall with my son's rights laws.
Everytime we go to court his court appointed attorney beings up this crap and the judge buys into it. We have appealed so many times and have now given up.
Dealing with mentally ill people is different for different people. It is all what comfort level you are at. My son will probably live with us till we die and that is okay by me.
