Re: incorrigible children

Your problem is not uncommon unfortunately. Alot will depend on what county you are in. The law does not provide for a lot of options but the court does have the authority to order communtiy service hours, remove them from your home and place them in foster care, put them on house arrest or an electronic monitor, etc.It may give them a wake up call but it can also give them a record.

Have you tried counseling or home based counseling at all?

Good luck!
