[quote=Anonymous]Has anyone had success sending an adolescent son to a boarding environment (military school, other treatment type facilities) for oppositional defiance issues? Therapy (and we have tried several) is of limited efficacy, and the issue is that we have other children whose childhoods are being adversely impacted due to their brother's behavior---including an escalating propensity for violence. Our DS was adopted as an older child---so the issues run deep and are not of our making---but we are now at the point that the welfare of the family of a whole is being compromised by the behavior of one. One of our big concerns is that a boarding environment might just introduce other behaviors (such as substance abuse issues) that currently aren't an issue. [/quote]
