[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 104922, member: 3626"] David, it really is pretty common for kids to have the choice to refuse medications after age 12. Not sure what the law is in your state, but most give kids the right to refuse medication sometime between ages 12-14. So, it may be that the camp has to tell him this legally. Many RTCs will give the kids the option even if there isn't a law. It really help a child see that the medications are needed, especially if they can't function in a really structured setting. So, for now, let him try it his way. Other than that, how did the visit go? What did you end up bringing for food? Any battles about it being just the two of you? (Start a new thread on the visit -- keeps this from getting too long and it really is a different issue.) [/QUOTE]
