I’m in a similar situation with my biological son. I tried to relinquish him to the state for foster care because he has a host of issues and every facility in Arkansas and out of state facilities are turning him down and DHS actually told me that if I try to relinquish him for foster care that I would be charged with abandonment. My son has threatened to kill me and his twin sister and they won’t allow me to relinquish custody because I cannot care for him anymore! I’m supposed to watch him 24/7 and I cannot because I have to work! I’m a single mother and am hoping to find someone that will take him. He’s on social security disability and I can’t do it anymore. But you cannot relinquish your custody to the state. They won’t let you. They don’t want the problem. He’s only 16. Wait another two years and boot him.
