Is this an OK place to just talk shop? I'm just looking for some people to talk to other than my coworkers about cases/tell funny stories/get advice/etc. Is there a better forum for this? It seems like every thread here is "How do I get into X program."
As a for instance, I've got a case where the kid states "Everyone thinks I'm a bad kid but I really just can't control it." It'd be easy to dismiss this as the kid looking for excuses, but the kid's mental health/trauma history makes me a lot more sympathetic. If that's the case, I've got bugger all idea what to do. How do you help a kid control something he may legitimately not have control over?
