[QUOTE="Dazed n Confused, post: 356746, member: 9086"] We signed a contract and paid a full fee for the Easy Child, the contract is for 18 months. As for communicating with us, therapist, the psychologist that tested him, she even met with our son, she has been great. So to get a new Easy Child would be hard. I don't know how much money we would get back, etc. I don't know if she gets defensive because my husband comes across as "Are you kidding me out of all the schools, you only found 2." I can see how that would make her defensive. But I also see her point. I don't know why but Utah,scares the H@!! out of me. When you do internet searches, the stories....wow. As for my son running away, not happening, his anxiety would prevent that. They keep kids after the age of 18. In Hawaii, he hasn't had one outburst etc. We were actually asked why we sent him there. He was doing everything asked of him, polite, respectful, etc. and then we had our first family phone call with the counselor....................lets just say WOW, the counselor then understood. My son is so afraid of making himself look bad, different, etc. that he holds it in and then explodes on us. He loves being there and doing everything, but as a family with him and us there is a wire loose. I hope this makes sense. The Easy Child, psychiatric., Counselor all agreed that he needs a soft program to help with depression, anxiety, social skills, and mature. He is 17 but he is immature around 14 or 15. Does not defy authority, teachers, no detention, no court records, etc. He was fine until 9th grade and then boom, like a light switch. We think something happened to him, but no one can find anything. He quit going to school and became addicted to the computer, his anger at home is why he was sent to a wilderness camp. Anyone at all have a child like that, if so, what long term program? Is it helping? I need any help or info I can get. TO make this even better, I was thrown from my horse on the 15th, have a concussion, doctor still won't let me drive, work, or ride. I am emotional, irritable, confused, have trouble talking. I have corrrected mistakes in this about 20 times, so I am sorry if this doesn't really make sense. Smallworld - I replied, did you get it. Dadside - PM me if you would and let me know the name of the place your son went to in Hawaii and Utah. [/QUOTE]
