If you have the availability you could even offer to take him to weekly appointments. Of course, it would be best to relate the need for counseling to the difficulties the family has been through and not to her mental health issues. If her son receives counseling, a social worker will be involved, and we can usually quickly tell when all is not well within a family.
I like your thinking on this one. She is currently pretty lucid where her son is concerned. I think I'm going to try this tack and see if I can help at all. Thanks you so much. Thank you SuperFemme and adorable for your help.
