[quote=Anonymous]ISO feedback from those who have experience with a CHINS petition. DC (15 years) has history of depression and anxiety. Refuses meds, refuses therapy, no longer goes to school, no contact with friends. DC does not meet the criteria for inpatient admissions because is not a threat although has a history of suicide attempt in the past. Psychiatrist has done everything they can to help, IEP team has done everything they can to help, we as parents have tried to do everything we can to help. Insurance company states it's going to take a while to find residential placement if we want to go down that route. We cannot afford an extra $70-80K/year to do private pay residential care or therapeutic boarding school. We are left with a CHINS petition option, but I am nervous about this. [/quote]
