[QUOTE="AngelsRus, post: 8124, member: 3381"] Judi, My son went to Residential Treatment Center (RTC) when he was 13 an was there for a year. He was so out of control and was kicked out of public school and was close to being arrested. We had no choice. I have tried to talk to him about it and he doesn't say much. I believe it is way of punishing me and allowing me to think the worst. We were very involved, with him every step of the way and this was a Christian based facility. He got into a lot of fights when he was there but I also believe 100% that it did help. In order to do that to a child, you have to love them more than yourself. You have to be willing to accept the pain that will come with sending them there and be strong and not be manipulated. You did the right thing, don't let him manipulate you now and try to make you feel guilty. His own behavior got him there, not yours. Hugs and Prayers, Angels R Us [img]:smile:[/img] [/QUOTE]
