I don't know how to thank you all... You really gave me a lot of things to think about. I really had no idea.
I'm reconsidering the whole thing and exploring other options, maybe just tradinational boarding schools, with open doors and open minds. My daughter is not ready to come back home yet. She would go back to her old destructive habits.
Thank you everybody again. Your suggestions and thoughts have been invaluable.

I've tried everything I could to help my daughter. I even quit my job... Nothing worked. Not the love, nor the punishments. Her therapist has been a great help and my daughter opened up with her. That was what helped us to really understand what was going on. What my daughter has been doing lately was very very dangerous. Mixing all kinds of drugs, pills and alcohol and going around at night with friends driving under the influence. I'd ratherlose her trust than lose her forever. Hopefully one day she'll understand. Until then it's my duty as parent to keep her safe.

Thank you everybody for your feedback.
My daughter has actually been in therapy for 2 years...The therapist herself recommended a more drastic intervention. Her use in drugs and alcohol has been escalating in the last months.Unfortunately TBS are considered the only options we have for her safety. Even the wildnerness program, and this is a very good one, apparently is not enough.

Asking help for my daughter:a 14yr old, now in a wildnerness program with drug abuse, defiant behavior, run-away, depressed, with anger problem who blames others for her mistakes.
Placement in TBS has been recommended and can't find a good one...

I have to make the difficult decision to send my 14 old daughter to either one of these residential school. Does anyone have any info about them? The Cooper Canyon Academy is in central AZ and it's part of the Aspern Education Group; the Academy at Sisters is in Bend, OR.

Thank you very much for any information you can have.
