I need to be in 2 places

I have a problem.

So DS who's 16 has had alot of issues . Which lead to him trying to end his life, and domestic violence towards me, and his sister on a lower level. He's been diagnosed with emotional disregulation.

His psychologist has arranged for me to go to a group that helps support parents and give better understanding of people with emotional disregulation it was arranged a while back and tomorrow is the first session.

The problem is I ( think) dd may have broken her hand. It does look a bit swollen but she has cried wolf a few times so I left it thinking she will start using it. When she does something she enjoys .

Obviously I have to take her to the hospital. But im not sure if she is pissing about . A nurse at hospital did tell me that if she's holding her hand in the same position it can be come painful and stiff. And look abit swollen. So I'm mlt sure if that the case now. (This was a different occasion)

The group I'm meant to be going to is quite important.

I would fake 16 year old to a and e and I the waiting time was really that long then I'd leave him there while I did pick up of the other two and keep in touch with him by phone. If you can't get out to pick him up he can get a taxi home from hospital

So what's the plan for the other dc while you're at the essential meeting for your son? Is it dd to provide childcare or can you take them? If its dd is this part of reason to not take her? Is the 'crying wolf' as you call it related to her maybe seeking attention with a DB who is violent to her and other siblings with additional needs?

I assume they'll be at school.

Who are you leaving the dc with when you are at the meetings over the next 12 sessions? Can they help out with getting dd to a&e? Am assuming they can't go to these, and also you won't be leaving dd with someone who is abusive to her?
That's not how she got injured is it?

Ah have just seen the time they're on! Not very accessible for working parents is it!
