How it is to be caring parent to a child in a program
Anonymous:
You should get this kid in touch with Psy. He has experience as an adult who signed himself into treatment, and staying there on his own accord. Most program survivors posting here were sent as underage youths with little say in the matter, and couldn't leave when they chose, and so they view an adult who willingly chooses to stay in a program as a confusing situation. Why would someone stay in a program that's abusive? It doesn't make any sense, so it really goes to credibility and people wonder how bad it really was.

He cannot sign himself out. Look at the old posts. The mother moved him from Utah to Idaho so she could get a rubber stamp at the local CEDU judge.
Oscar:
Update: It seems that the young man was kicked out because the mother insisted to have him put on the phone at least one time per week.
Now he can focus on a life on his own. Personally I hope that he can find his way over here so he can get a push in the right direction.
Whooter:
I checked out the link you supplied, Oscar, and I am usually not critical of others but I find it odd that this woman’s signature includes her current ailments and her sons medications. Why would someone do that?

To me this is a red flag as to her mental state and effectiveness as a parent.

Those types of sigs are endemic to that forum. They seem to stand in for some sort of badge of pain and suffering.
