[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 385447, member: 1514"] I remember Slsh placing her son so long ago. Gosh it was agonizing. We were going through it about the same times but mine was slightly older. Mine started off in a 16 month wilderness camp. Then he did the rounds of psychiatric hospitals and group homes which in my state are considered Residential Treatment Center (RTC)'s but lower level Residential Treatment Center (RTC)'s. Finally he ended up in a locked facility which started out with admittance into a psychiatric hospital and then straight into a locked Residential Treatment Center (RTC). He was there about 8 months then tapered down to a group home then home. Did all this work? Well it kept him alive from 11 until he was 18. I dont know if it actually did much good or if he learned a darned thing. I think he is maturing now that he is in his mid twenties though. In reality though, Im not too sure I like any kids from say 13 until about 22. I think they all travel to some dark side during that time...lol. [/QUOTE]
