[QUOTE="ChickPea, post: 757126, member: 24089"] No sure how old your son is, but my daughter went to a court-ordered treatment center when she was 17. I remember her making "miraculous changes" according to he staff there, but knew better. We had young children at home and needed to have some non-chaotic time, and I flat refused to take her back home so she could be released early for "good behavior." She threw a FIT. She raged. That was the first time she showed her true colors there (and this was after 8-ish weeks). The counselor called me to tell me what happened, and then proceeded to tell me that they were wrong, and she was sorry - but her bed was already going to someone else and she was going to be released anyway. I refused to pick her up or have her stay here. So my parents did. In time, they regretted it. None of it was easy. Well, it was easy to know that she could not come home. It was hard to fight the system, deal with her rants and cruelty, etc. Hang in there, darling. Gosh, what a fantastic quote right there. [/QUOTE]
