Abstract
Children with serious emotional and behavioral disorders present strong challenges to families and professionals who attempt to care for them at home. This longitudinal, exploratory study examines the placementthreatening crises experienced by nine Minnesota families during an 18-month period. The findings encourage critical reevaluation of placement-prevention programs, highlighting the importance of informal support systems, hngstanding family supports, attitudes of professionals, and the role of medications.
