[QUOTE="Lucedaleblessed, post: 288752, member: 6747"] They are all in that price level: Military schools, Wilderness programs, therapeutic Boarding Schools, private boot camps. Oversea programs are sometime cheaper but no laws regulate them and a Mexico, Costa Rica, the Czech republic and Samoa has closed a number of them because they didn't live up the standard they demanded in these countries. I have been looking at a program in Rosarito, Mexico but really sending a child down to an area where bodies are everywhere in a drug war combined with swine flu. Not even I am so desperate and now the school has even changed name due to a conflict in the management. If he is old enough and he wants to leave home you could try the National Guard Youth Challenge Program. It is free and he can get a GED. If he isn't willing to go you can try to challenge him and state that he isn't tough enough to do it. Maybe he will fall for it. The first 14 days in the NGYCP program is hell and some return ready to kiss the feet of their parents just to live home again. If your son is among them, it is a very good point to start making a bargain from. It is necessary to test that hard because the staff want to know what they can work with. After 26 additional weeks the teenagers return home where they are matched with a local coach for the next year. My brother works with one of these coaches so that is where I got my information from.
