Not
only have I worked with many, many teens like yours and parents
like you, I know the programs and schools which I recommend, and
I know the people who staff them.
The right program is determined by a number of factors, but one
of the most important is the staff. Knowing who will be working
with your teen is a crucial part of choosing the right program.
I visit the programs which I recommend to my clients, I know who
will be working with your teen.
How
it feels to send your child away...
I know how hard it is to reach the decision to send your teen way.
I tell parents that it is not an admission of failure to decide
that their teen and their whole family will be better off if they
decide to send him/her to a program or school for teens.
Remember: Your teen was leaving home anyway it
is only a question of the how and when not being quite how you had
planned. You may have to send your child away in order to get him
back. It can be a very good trade off!
