[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are the chances a child will eventually thank their parent(s) for doing this?

I totally get being at the end of your rope and feeling like you’re out of options, but I’d love to hear from folks (children) who have been through this process and come out the other side. I’d think it also depends on what kind of “school” you’re talking about. [/quote]

This is DCUM so you’re not going to hear from children here. But I think mine would tell you it was life changing, extremely difficult, and necessary to prevent him from suiciding. It’s been years and my kid continues to use his RTC therapists.

OP, the program I used had a list of transport services. I found one that would even meet me if I tried on my own and could not get my kid to the program. It would have cost more if I had to use it but the risk was worth it to me because the cost of service was so high and I knew I was going to be paying a ton of money for residential treatment.

Have you read about some of the practices at Diamond Ranch? They are abusive, not therepeutic. I can definitely appreciate that some kids may need residential therapy … but it’s got to be actually therepeutic. The “bootcamp” places that regularly kidnap kids are not therepeutic.[/quote]
