[quote=Anonymous]I've been in similar experiences with one of my kids and also I worked with families who had children that committed suicide. I would immediately take my child to the emergency room for evaluation. What she did is really serious and she may not be telling you the truth about not having a plan. One thing I learned when working with families is this. Every single one of them said they never saw it coming yet, as a professional, when I heard their stories, the risk was evident. They wanted to believe it couldn't happen in their family, not to their child. Your story screams of this. If she doesn't need the hospital, no harm done. But if you don't take her and she did need the hospital, you all will never be the same. FWIW, I have taken my child to crisis and the ER on many occasions. Only once was he not admitted and then two days later, he tried to kill himself. [/quote]
