Though she didn’t go into more detail, she told People at the time, “There’s a fairly fluid diagnosis of what those needs are, but he needs to learn certain strategies to help him deal with things. This has been a struggle we’ve had for a very long time, and it’s one I’ve dealt with on my own.”

According to the papers, the former reality star and his lawyers claim that it would be best for the teen to live with Jon once he’s released from the inpatient center.  If approved, Collin will join his sister Hannah, also 14, who started living full-time with their dad last spring.
