[QUOTE="Steely, post: 122687, member: 3301"] :sorry: I can imagine how hard this must be for you. Your exact emotions are why I never had the courage to put my son in Residential Treatment Center (RTC). I do not believe that was necessarily the right choice. I know he would have missed me, like justin misses you........and vice a versa..........however I also think he would have learned so much self control, and gained so much internal strength that it would have been worth it. Remember the long term vision for Justin. He is there to gain what? I doubt your goals for him have been achieved in this short stay because they are soul strides are you wanting, not just behavior. Your goals for him will be achieved if you stick to the plan, and let him develop his own fortitude, discipline, and will power. Keep fighting the good fight. Let him feel his own pain, and develop his own inner resources - he will be so much more adept in life if you allow this. Sending strength your way. [/QUOTE]
