[quote=Anonymous]I’m so sorry, OP.  We have been there too.  I’m reading these responses and getting upset because we have tried them all, with limited  success.

If you are in immediate physical danger you have to call the police.  You can’t end up dead and that would be worse for your kid.  Remember that.

We have called the Fairfax crisis line, mobile crisis line and police several times.  The only ones who have ever come are the police.   Some have been good at de escalating for the evening. Others have made it worse. All will take your kid away in handcuffs, either take them to for a mental health evaluation where they won’t be admitted, or take to processing for an assault charge and then now all of you are in the court system.   We have been through all of that.  Our son is calmer now but I think it’s because he’s older and also doesn’t want to violate probation since he’s in “the system”.  He has an outside therapist who he goes to to comply with court.  I don’t think it’s that helpful other than that.

If you are in danger you must call the police though.  Or get in your car and leave.   [/quote]
