I have a 15 yo nephew that has been in care a few times for short periods over the years. He's stayed in foster care for a short period, and various family members, none of which can handle him. He is being looked after by his 86 year old grandad who has the flu, his mum is in hospital half paralysed with MS, I can't control him, tonight I tried to discipline him for being late in, he threatened to call the police on me and say I threatened him, luckily I recorded the conversation on my phone. He's a constant nightmare that needs to go in to care.

My question is, who do I call if he needs to be removed?

p.s. The social workers have talked about putting him in temporary cars because of him mothers situation. But I'm worried he'll kill his grandad off before then.

Who can I call?

KatnissK - my niece(his sister) sent me a recording of her talking to him after I left. He talked about how he thinks he can get me in trouble for this and that, and she told him that she was right at the door the whole time, which he didn't know. If he did try and lie, all the family would back me up.
