[QUOTE="DDD, post: 237461, member: 35"] Welcome aboard. Over the years there have been alot of teen parents who have made difficult decisions regarding placements for major behavior and/or substance abuse issues. Although I agree with what others have posted to you (including that it is difficult to offer support when we don't know what type of decision you are feeling guilty about) [B][I]sometimes[/I][/B] it is a good thing to rethink choices. Please note I emphasized sometimes. There have been occasions when a rash choice has been made by loving parents. There have been occasions when a placement that was suppose to be great...turns out to have been a mistake. (the lst residential one I chose based on very very solid recommendations by multiple experts turned out to have "changed hands" and was not good for easy child/difficult child). So I suggest you share with us. Believe me you can do so without using names, cities, or any identifiers. Also believe me that many of us have found this group in the CD family the [B]only[/B] place where we feel free to really express our fears etc. We do not always agree with one another but over the years there have been fewer than a handful of participants who were less than sincere in trying to help. Sending a hug. DDD [/QUOTE]
