[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 251925, member: 1233"] I would make sure he is there for at least a year. The representatives usually know what they are talking about, from what I hear. Can he take correspondence courses or some other courses to continue his education if he is graduating high school at 16? I know my bro graduated HS at 16 and then went straight to college. Bro was very much a partying difficult child and he did pretty well even with the partying until he went into an upperclassmen dorm at age 18. He managed to get more F's than I knew were even possible. All he did once he left supervision of mom and dad's house (not super strict) was to party. Keep your son there. Let him work on either his general ed requirements (pretty much the same for most degrees) or an associate's degree online. Returning to the same friends, etc... will drag him back into the sub abuse and NOT be good overall. Let him stay at the boarding school until he has 12-18 months MINIMUM to let the new habits become much firmer. Sending support whatever you decide. [/QUOTE]
