So the highly ethical therapist is going to work for a unethical program that is not licensed?
Hmmm?

My son was there about a year ago. Prior to his admission, we had tried several places in the DFW area without success. He spent six weeks the SDR and it was the best thing we ever did. I do believe it saved his life. We changed his school and has new friends. The jury is still out but we are most hopeful. SDR gave us hope and peace of mind. The staff is great and I will always be grateful they were there when we most needed them.
Folks when it comes to drug abuse, there is no magic bullet. We continuously monitor his activities, we have spent a lot of money and time on private counseling and family participation. As far as I am concerned, SDR is a fantastic place.

So what did SDR do that you as a parent could not do? You counsel, you monitor, you teach, you guide. What did you need SDR - or any program - to do?

i went to sundown for 7 weeks during the summer of 2004, and it was referred by the seay center. sundown did not help me in any way. all the kids that were there when i went had no plans of staying clean. my friend was admitted to sundown ranch earlier today, and i only hope that she is in the extremely small percentage of kids that recover. she and i are heavy meth users, something i didnt get into until after i got out of sundown, and i can actually say this from my own experience that sundown ranch is a joke. if you are considering SRI as an option for you child, please keep looking!!!
