[QUOTE="OTE, post: 386694"] Nancy's right, none of them want to be there. Getting into rehab at any age is difficult. Only way to make him want to go is consequences or reward. In my experience most of them want to interview the kid before they'll agree to take him. Getting the kid there is horrible if the kid is into the addiction deeply. If you're paying for it they're more likely to be flexible. My suggestion was that you ask them to help you get him in when you bring him there. That will be both the interview and admission. Suggest that you focus first on finding the right program. Then talk to the director and ask for their help. You need to convince them that you are very serious and will do whatever it takes. If they put you off ask what it will take for them to accept him. Offer to have prior therapist talk to them. Call again a few days later, more calls more serious you look. But focus on wht they want you to do. They say jump you say.... [/QUOTE]
