Perhaps if the psychologist at the hospital could recommend s9 coming back with you
The doctor may be willing to help and I would intervene anywhere I could-

usually the social worker at the hospital may also help especially if s9 requests he feels this way since w and OW are abusive and he is not happy with them

I would also start contacting all free agencies regarding child abuse and safety and see if there is another way
to let s9 speak, and another judge can rearrange the living situation

also the school social worker may be able to advocate for him and have suggestions
My best friend is a school social worker at a HS and I will ask her as soon as she returns from a trip for advice-for you-

I know where I live I filed a paper many years back to speak to a judge to get my D then 14 years old a passport for a missions trip because her dad was unreachable and the state required both p[arents to sign for a child to leave the country
It costs 50$ back then and I waited for my court date..and then met private at the courthouse with the judge who signed the paperwork so D could get passport
