Sorry to bump this thread, but here is an article which talks the pros and cons of sending your child to a boot camp for naughty kids: http://www.teenbootcamps.org/boot-camps ... -kids.html

Boot camps are really effective in fixing attitude problems as well as helping teens with emotional growth. But before you send a troubled teen to a boot camp, it's very important that you understand what these boot camps are and how effective (or not) they are in transforming struggling teens.
