[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 556848, member: 1514"] I dont know. Donna worked in a prison who had a program like it and it worked well. I think it would have been a good program for Cory and would have enrolled him in a heartbeat. I dont see how one can say it increases recidivism because most of these kids are already involved in the legal system anyway. How does one know they werent headed back? Nothing else we are doing is working much better to be honest. I know all the medications, therapy, begging, group homes, crying, threatening, spanking, pleading with God, having a DNA test to make sure I brought the right kid home, everything...didnt do much good. It all took time and charging him as an adult so he got a taste of jail. Maybe I could have saved him the charges if I could have sent him as a teen. [/QUOTE]
