I’m familiar with Devereux, having worked there. I don’t recall that they take kids as young as six for their residential programs. And I didn’t see anything on the Stewart House website indicating that they take young children for residential or that they take violent kids. People who believe that something exists for kids like this little boy don’t know the reality of institutional programs, which is that very few take violent kids and very few accept kids under the age of 12.

NP here. Just because there are few of them doesn’t equal that institutional homes being obsolete. They do still exist. A good friend of mine had to put her adoptive daughter in one in PA because she was so violent she tried to kill her, her DH and their other child, several times. They tried many other options for years and nothing worked. She was adopted at 12. It was a terrible situation for everyone. They are wealthy so they can afford to pay.[/quote]
