I know the risks I want to hear just somebody out there tell me another side to this. If it doesn't exist, so be it. I haven't sent him to the gulag yet. I'm trying to get information everywhere...even at this moronic site! I'd hate to be the kid from Carlbrook who suceeded and tried to post his story. You guys would rip him apart and probably question his sexuality. Forget I even asked. Wait, a kid that has done well in the program probably isn't spending his days proving his sucess to you. Never mind, I'll just put what I've learned from this site into the CON side of the paper."
Wow. This is me -> ::bangin:: <- and this is you.
If you want someone to tell you it's OK to send your kid away when there is approprite treatment based in your community, you're not going to get it.
Instead of being so vitriolic, why not tell us a bit of history about your son? Maybe if you inform us a little better we can can recommend some other options. However, if all you do is react hysterically and never share with us what's at the root of your problem, how are we to help you in any form?
What is your son's psychological diagnosis?
What types of behaviors does he engage in that worry you?
Is he learning disabled?
Using drugs or alcohol heavily?
Tell us what's going on with your kid and you will certainly get constructive advice.
BTW, if you think I speak in "psychobabble," wait until you get into the Orwellian double-speak of the program.
