Terry this is the best thing that could have happened! This is very similar to what happened to my son. What these kids need is long term treatment!!!!
My son has been in a long term residential treatment program that was court ordered for 5 months so far. It is also very strict - although it is not a locked facility....but if he walks there will be a warrant put out for his arrest and he would have jail time. Sitting in jail for 3 months before he got into this place gave him some motivation to not go back!
At first I think he got close a few times to thinking about running for it and trying to get out of state before they could catch up to him. But he didnt. He has now moved up in their level system, has more responsibility there and is doing well. I think at this point he has decided to stay and to keep working on things.
So I hope this works well for your daughter.
