RESOURCES?
Anonymous:
This forum says it's RESOURCES for boarding schools, residential treatment, etc. So where are the resources? All I'm reading are a bunch of posts that sound to me like parents just need to let their kid control them, do what they want to do and to hell with getting help. Or, do you have suggestions on how to all of a sudden "change" their teen? The teen has to want to change and to find help is hard enough without having "poor me" ex-students or co-dependent parents spewing garbage - You all sound like victims of your own making - I need real help - me AND my kid - and this is obviously not the place to find it. Sorry I dropped in. I think I'll call WWASPS now! They've got to have the best program or there wouldn't be so much negative press. Bye now.

If that actually is a parent and not some 13 year old kid, it shows how careless some parents really are.

Correct this isn't the place to go for help but moreover the place where you learn where NOT to go for help. My best wishes to you and yours but it would be wise to listen to those that have been there. Just an opinion.

I've been here a while and can't ever recall this message board being promoted as or refered to as a "resource" for BSs and RTCs...EVER.
>>>The teen has to want to change and to find help is hard enough without having "poor me" ex-students or co-dependent parents spewing garbage -You all sound like victims of your own making - I need real help - me AND my kid - and this is obviously not the place to find it.
Intuition tells me that you are not a troubled parent fresh on the trail, seeking a place to dump your kid. Just another lying program groupie.
>>>Sorry I dropped in. I think I'll call WWASPS now! They've got to have the best program or there wouldn't be so much negative press. Bye now.
That's really brilliant. How long did it take you to compose it? I have an image of you WWASPers working overtime- collaborating on how to respond to anything that isn't supportive of the cult. Who's co-dependent?
I understand, some adults just aren't ready to take responsibility for themselves or their offspring, yet demand that their child "grow up" and "act mature".... go figure???
Also, you were arrogantly critical of ex-students. When people are wronged they can be pretty harsh and angry for a while. What's your excuse? I can't imagine that you were so disappointed this board wasn't what you were looking for.... that you would take the time to let us all know how sick you think we are and how disappointed you were. Get real. Go pay someone to listen to your disappointments.
My intuition is usually on target. But, on the outside chance you are for real-
SAVE YOUR CHILD...ENROLL YOURSELF
