What resources are available for dealing with a difficult child?
A. The Juvenile Court has numerous resources available to help parents and guardians with a child who is disobedient, as does the Missouri Division of Family Services Children’s Division. They can provide information on programs and counseling services to assist you with a difficult child, including temporary residential programs that include intensive counseling and intervention for both the child and the parent. You can contact the Juvenile Court at 314-552-2000. The number for the Children’s Division is 314-340-7000. We would also encourage you to consider involving your child in active programs such as the Department’s PAL program. For more information visit the PAL page.
