Need thoughts on Ridge Creek.

Quote from: ""Deborah""
*** bringing a child into the world, loving them, woprrying about them and caring for their every need will drive you to try anything!

The message here, over and over, is that parents largely over-react. They live in fear and make all their decisions based on fear. That is not useful or effective in achieving what they ultimately want.

The number one killer of teens here is auto accidents, not drugs or suicide or any of the other things parents obsess about it.
Do they sit around wringing their hands in fear about their kids being killed the next time they load them up to go to the grocery store? No.
Do they loose sleep at night over the possibility that their kids will die from cancer, the number 3 killer? No. Do they attempt to do anything about their kids nutritional needs, etc to eliminate or decrease the odds of their kid developing cancer? No.

The hysteria isn't warranted. Here's just a couple of many links to accurate information to dispell those fears.

http://fornits.com/wwf/viewtopic.php?p= ... ncer#31500

In fact parents are being 'manipulated' and 'deceived' with 'fear mongering' put out by those who financially gain from their fear- drug companies, programs, etc.


 :rofl: well when you put it like that I sound right, Deborah!

I'm talking as a parent who could easily have fallen into the whole program experience, and who knows may still yet...


You cannot be serious. Don't even pretend. It's not funny.

You still haven't gotten your kids on this forum yet, you know. If they have serious reading difficulties, I'll make a fucking audio file telling them what the hell they're up against.

Course I'm serious...I wouldn't have written it other wise, i was seriously going to send my son to boot camp or wilderness, I was desperate - but I didn't so don't fret

I'll see if I can get them on the forum this weekend, it's difficult to get them to come indoors for a meal let alone talk on the net, and I will have more time to spend at the weekend, I was working until 2.30 am yesterday/today after they'd gone to bed and today they both ran away because I wouldnt let the youngest have money - they didn't come in until really late.

They may refuse yet Milk, i can't make them speak to you, it's hard enough geting them to speak to people face to face at the moment!

The point was the "still may yet" given the fact that you now KNOW what goes on, know it will not help them, and it will fuck them up quite a bit.

For you to consciously know what goes on and still put them through that would earn you a very warm place in hell, exhausted.

Will you save me a seat?  :evil:

No the 'still may' was tongue in cheek, however, if they carry on it still may happen, not by my doing but what the courts order in the end, sad but true, they know this but don't really seem to have any sense of it can really happen to them until it does.

If its Hell, sit in my lap...

...but at any rate, I think the only way you'll see them get anywhere is to make them do things for themselves. Dunno how manageable that is in the UK with its labor laws but, hey, it's worth a shot.

And sorry but I didn't see the tongue in the cheek there :P emoticons help to communicate that.

I posted this at Strugglingteens.Com and I am posting it here because I am desperate to find the right solution for my son. He has been struggling in school and he refuses to accept my new partner despite his attemts to devolop a relationship with him. My son has struggles with confidence and he is in jeopardy of losing his eligibility to play sports due to his grades. I want to have him escorted to a program but my ex refuses to agree to do that.He doesnot want to help himself.He has been particulary against me since I divorced his father. I just do not know where to turn right now. I feel like I have tried every possible option.

Quote from: ""WillieNelson ( Karen Austin/KarenInDallas/RandomWalk etc. )""
It it were my son, I would send him to the wilderness program where my son went. I felt they got through to the real issues quickly,and the kid absolutely couldn't get away with any &hit. You write your child an impact letter, and, boy, does that go a long way towards letting them see what their actions and behavior have done.
The reason the topic veered off is because there aren't many options for you. Local herapy hasn't worked, your son is abusive and dysfunctional at home and at school, and your only option is to put up with it or try a residential program. It will cost more than $10,000- that would cover about 3 weeks and you will probably need 6-9 weeks. There is a chance wilderness could turn things around and that your son would hold his ground even in the face of the father. There is no guarantee.

"I would send him to the wilderness program where my son went"
