My son has abused me in the recent past, stolen money from me, stolen my car with a gang member and totalled it, cursed me out beyond belief, and now he is either home sleeping or off with his friends all hours of the night and morning. He's 17 years old and will be 18 in October. The law does not help at all. I've called officers to my home when he would threaten me and/or get so angry that I was feeling afraid, and they would tell me that they could not do anything and that I needed to stop calling them because they weren't family counselors. I called the Dept of Children and Families and they said that they aren't there for parents, only children and that he could not be removed from my home because of his violent criminal past. (I had him arrested when he picked me up and threw me through my closet doors. It is listed under domestic violence and therefore, only a misdemeanor.)
