[QUOTE="MrsMcNear46, post: 143298, member: 3234"] Sweet Betsy spent a year in Teen Challenge in Indianapolis from age 14-15. I am one of the belief that healing spiritually is as important as healing physically & mentally and the program provided that base. After the first couple of weeks Sweet Betsy buckled down and worked the program intensively. She let go of the behaviors that were causing so many problems, got back to where she had been spiritually for years, and turned her life around. The staff was remarkable. I didn't worry for her safety the entire year she was there. We attended family therapy sessions and worked on how to resolve the issues we were having at home. She excelled in their home school program, and became the sweet girl she had been in the past. I must tell you that we had endured a series of deaths in our family in a very short period of time, which caused her alot of anger. She worked on how to channel that anger and became accountable. Of all the things she gained from the program, I think accountability was the biggest. She stopped blaming everyone for all of her problems and to this day-almost 5 years later, she continues to be accountable. TC is a wonderful program and works well for those who cannot pay outrageous amounts for treatment. It is based on income and is affordable for anyone. We actually had sponsers from our church to help pay her tuition. Even now, Sweet Betsy contiues to use what she learned at TC in her everyday life. It was a positive experience for all.
