[quote=Anonymous]Op- my thoughts are with you and your family. You mentioned that your DS has been to boarding schools, were they therapeutic boarding schools? There are some great residential programs (mostly on the west coast) that provide structure, therapy and opportunities to finish school. Often traditional, once a week therapy doesn't work for this type of kid, especially in an environment full of triggers- but it does work in a more controlled environment. This type of school has more of a focus on therapy than academics in the initial phase, but will have the opportunity to complete high school. Most programs also have a family therapy component. Since your DS is close to his 18th birthday I'm not sure how enrollment would work, but it might be worth looking inot. Unfortunately, these programs can be very expensive and most of the costs may not be covered by insurance. Here is a website about one such program.. http://www.turningwinds.com/ [/quote]
