[QUOTE="Lucedaleblessed, post: 271095, member: 6747"] I am so sorry that you have to go through that but regarding that therapeutic boarding school thing, have you secured that they wont try to alter the fact that she sees herself as a lesbian as you write in the other thread? I write this because I have researched a lot for my daughter - just in the case the situation should get worse. Most of them isolate each gender for themselves because they want the students to focus on their issues rather than establishing relationships in the student community. Some of the schools see it as their task to make the issue of sexual orientation a part of the treatment regardless of the fact that you state that you respect it. While I certainly find it very important that you should keep adult partners away from her, I would if I found myself in your shoes regarding her choice of a lifepartner ask the school if they will respect her choices in that matter. If they don't I would not place my daughter such a place. I saw a story about the journalist [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyn_Duff"]Lyn Duff[/ame] who were sent to a Residential Treatment Center (RTC) which did not respect her sexual orientation. Have you been looking at normal boarding schools with small classes? I find it so hard that you have to struggle with all that and I realize that I would never be able to homeschool my children, so I find that you are a strong person to have made it so far. [/QUOTE]
