My son Diezel has ADHD, conduct disorder, narcolepsy and has been arrested for domestic violence against me his mother. It was dropped to incorrigibility and he was help back into the 7th grade plus he had been held back in 5th grade too. I need help. He controls and mentally tortures me and my 16 year old daughter and The courts and police are of no help. We have to wait until violently attacks one of us again. If my daughter had not been there last time he may have strangled me to death. She had to threaten him with a knife to get him off of me and release my neck. I was wondering if this school is one for kids like my son that can give him some help and guidance. I don't know what to do or where to turn. I am leaglly married but he maoved out 7 years ago and living with a woman and they had him there a few times and she saw what a devil he is and refuses to let my husband take our son and raise him. I can't do it anymore. I feel I can't take one more day of his torture. Please give me some advise. Thank You Lezli Hewitt
