[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. Is it legal to create a safe room that I can lock DS inside of? We have a safe room that locks from the inside and we sometimes lock ourselves in that room with him. It has a bed and we can lie in it and the room is safe.

But what happens when I go in there with DS is he will scream directly in my ear or throw things at me, so it’s not restful.

Wondering if I could create a room I could lock DS in from the outside, what a camera on the inside. So I could keep him safe but get away from him.

Op here. To clarify some of our therapies happen at home and we sometimes have caseworkers from DDD come to our house so I don’t want to do anything that is illegal or would cause them to report me for something.[/quote]

This is a legitimate worry but you obviously you do not lock him in the room when they are there. This is just for when you or DH are alone and at the end of your rope. Better to put him in a safe, familiar room for a short time than have something worse happen. I've been at the edge and this allows me to regroup and be with DC later when I am calmer and can handle the moment. [/quote]
