I am the new member, and I am not there to keep the Sudweeks posted. I was invited by another member. I will say that I have nothing to hide from the Sudweeks because I support them completely. It doesn't matter what anyone says; those of us who have children who were saved by the Sudweeks know all we need to know.
I cannot speak for the Sudweeks, but I'm sure they don't need reports from me regarding the parents' group. We all support them and they know it. End of story.

They run away because that's what troubled teens do. Do you not know this after having a troubled teen yourself? 99% of the kids at The Whitmore will tell you that they ran away from perfectly good parents. They were fighting their own demons - not bad parenting. The same goes for The Whitmore. You only have to think back to why the kids go to The Whitmore in the first place to find your answer. They can't heal everybody and they make it perfectly clear that there are no guarantees. It's sad when some don't do as well as others, but it doesn't mean it's The Whitmore's fault. It means the child has not healed yet. Some journeys are longer than others. Quit looking for simple answers and blame. You'll only shortchange yourself.

Is your child home yet?

The means does not justify the end.
One girl ran away because she was afraid of what was going to happen to her when she was caught sending an e-mail to her mother telling her she wanted to come home. She had been there well over a year at the time. Someone posted on this site that she was caught sending an e-mail to an "inappropriate" person. Her mother?????
When she was returned to the Whitmore, she was beat up for running away. Is that what you want to happen to your child? It doesn't matter why troubled teens runaway, how you deal with them when they do does. That's the issue.
