[quote=Anonymous]Thank you everyone for your feedback.  I am thankful for such a vocal community.

Our son has basically shut down since COVID.  We are/have explored both inpatient and intensive outpatient options.  Our concerns are i) we are not sure we would even be successful getting our son out of the house each morning for outpatient, ii) Inpatient might be too clinical and doesn't necessarily address his overall life coping skills, iii) since the cost for many of these programs are astronomical to begin with, we'd rather try do something more extreme.  We are basically in nuclear mode at this point, and we (along with his therapist) believe a complete change in scenery might be the most beneficial option for him.

That said, i am not without concerns about such a decision.  I have scoured Facebook, Reddit, Better Business Bureau, etc for any honest feedback i can find. We are scheduled to speak with 3 different parents who sent their kids to the program over the last 2 years to get their honest feedback.

I will also look into the many suggestions everyone provided as an alternative.  [/quote]
