[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 386183, member: 59"] PatriotsGirl, I found that what they term "has to be willing to be there" is very loosely defined. We were told that also and then found out that most people in rehab are not there willingly. They have been ordered by the court or their family has drawn the line in the sand and said unless they went for help they couldn't live there anymore. Interventions are done everyday, even most rehab centers will arrange one for you. At the end of the intervention the person agrees to go to rehab but it doesn't make them automatically willing to be there. You have more power than you think. I too thought I could never get my difficult child into rehab. She's 19 and could just refuse. Most people in that position will not refuse help because the street is not a good alternative.
