[quote=Anonymous]I am one of the posters who had a kid kicked out of Maddux. I know other families who were as well. My goal, in telling people that his happened, is to dispel the myth that Maddux is a cure-all for everyone, as was its reputation when I first started hanging out on this board. People seemed to think that if your kid got in they would fix him. I know I felt this way. They are well meaning people at Maddux but they are overstretched and they are not able to deal with all behaviors or needs. I just want people to be realistic about expectations. My guess is that 1-2 kids are asked to leave every year (that's totally a guess) so not a lot but it hurts tremendously when it happens because you put so much faith in these people and if they can't help him what does that say about the kid's potential for improvement in general. Some of us were asked not to return for the following year, some were asked to leave mid-year. [/quote]
