Wisdom Ranch School
Anonymous:
If the kid is willing to go willingly (now that's an oxymoron) then why send him away at all? Enroll him in an alternative school in Arizona that can help meet his needs and/or interests. Outward Bound is great for building self-esteem and helping parents to repair broken relationships with their teens. No one has ever complained about Outward Bound. Not parents or teens. They aren't in the business of robbing kids of their adolescence and/or identity as a means of changing and/or controlling behavior. Who needs a ranch school for 6 months? Can't your kid go to school in Arizona AND get help with his issues?

Thank you for the mentor link. I have already contacted some of them via email for info. For some reason, in the past, I haven't found that site and I've looked. I guess it takes a village (not just a cliche).
I appreciate your help
