[QUOTE="comatheart, post: 616223, member: 16859"] I agree, 30 days is not long enough. Try and look at it this way... 30 days inpatient now followed by a (what I've read to be a) 90% relapse rate. **OR** 90 days now and a MUCH lower rate of relapse. She is young and I can just imagine how hard it is for her to be away from you. My son just got out of 3 months of treatment. He is a few years older and it was hard for us. BUT, I wanted him to get AS MUCH TREATMENT AS POSSIBLE to get that relapse rate as low as we possibly could. When it comes down to it, he could still relapse tomorrow, but my husband and I can say we did as much as we could right out of the gate. Honestly, if we could have gotten him into another program that lasted 6 months, we would have. Unfortunately, he turned 18 just 3 months into the program and so they refused to take him. :( In my opinion, if your daughter is putting up such a fight now, then she needs more treatment. My son is the one attending a recovery program since getting out of rehab. If you want me to help find a similar program near you, PM me your location. [/QUOTE]
