[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't recommend residential programs. They tend to make friends with other residents, who are also out of control. A lot of them hook up after treatment and the problems continue. Finding a good family counselor can help enormously. Punishment is not working but finding ways for him to earn your approval and rewards may work. [/quote] PP here whose kid was in a RTC. Not our experience about making friends. He came home with no new contacts. Also he did meet people in the various hospitals he was in before he went to RTC but most were fine and it was easy to keep him away from those who weren’t. Thing about RTC is distance. And if your kid is at the point where you are considering RTC, most likely a family therapist isn’t enough. [/quote]
