[QUOTE="Andy, post: 395541, member: 5096"] If you suspect drug use, check with your insurance company to see what your policy will cover for him to enter an adolescent treatment program. Since he is still a minor, you can admit him. There will be assessments and most likely a drug test done upon admission. I work for a Chemical Dependency Treament facility run by the State. We do have adolescent programs within the system. There are county funds used throughout the state to provide treatment for people whose insurance will not cover. So, if your insurance does not cover, contact the county in which you live and ask to talk with a chemical dependency worker. That person can help find a treatment program for your son. Once a child reaches the age of 18, he/she is considered an adult and can not be made to go through treatment unless through the court system. Until then, parents are the decision makers and can make their child enter treatment. [/QUOTE]
