Father and son WC
Badad:
Thanks so much. I agree with most that has been said here. Im glad I didnt take the advice to "stay away from here" from the Woodbury forums.
We dont make allot of money. The cost of one years tuition at any of the so called "good" RTC's is more than we make in a year. Yet I was willing to sign my life away to help my son.

This way even if he spends a few years completely fucking up but eventually comes out of it, he will still something set aside to help him go to college or learn a trade.
Good luck.

Oz girl.. Your statement worries me. Because when I was 17 I sold drugs. A informant finally got me busted and I joined the coast guard (with visions of finding bales of dope on the beach) to avoid prosecution. So instead of going to college I ended up in boot camp. I got my ass kicked in boot camp as I was demoted from one company to another for disciplinary issues. I could have quit. But I knew what awaited if I returned home. I didnt "come out of it". And after 4 years in the coast guard I had little to show for it. The CG runs off the DOT which at that time was almost bankrupt and the school I was promised closed.
This was a big stumbling block I dont wish my son to experience. But he knows and has seen first hand what drugs and alcohol can do to a person.
The FFT sounds good. How do I go about setting this up?

Badad:
FFT isn't available unless my son is in the juvenile system.
Things have slowly reverted back to what they used to be and worse since he got back. He makes his mom cry on a daily basis. And just got done tearing his room apart. Then he said he was leaving forever. But returned 1/2 hr later to eat and continue his rein.
Another 4 years of this?
Anonymous:
Got back from where, Badad?
Badad:
He was up in minneapolis with my wifes sister for one trimester at a charter school. She (pat) finally gave up.
I started looking for schools again. But Im glad I came back here to remind me what most of them are like.
But my wife and I are on the edge of sanity/divorce.
