I think his mother, who has guardianship, needs to make those decisions. His father may impact on the decisions but not you unless both parents have agreed that you are to be a part of decisionmaking. Sorry.

Bipolar Disorder is difficult to treat even using all modalities. A concerted effort from all parents is necessary, along with advice from the child's doctors, imo. JD

There is a bipolar forum here and at the lold forums that has a subforum for children with bipolar. I would encourage you to post there when open and here.
I would reccomend the treatment facility, 8 is old enough to control his behavior within a structured environment.
all parties involved could use therapy to help better understand this childs needs and tools to better cope in all regards.
I wish you well....
