[QUOTE="jbrain, post: 39201, member: 3450"] Hi Tracy, my dtr was at an Residential Treatment Center (RTC) when she was 16 and I felt as you do--though I felt the relief the very 1st day when she was safely there and I could leave! I live in NY state and she went to Utah so there weren't a lot of visits but I certainly had mixed feelings about her coming home. Her therapist at her Residential Treatment Center (RTC) set up ground rules for what she could and couldn't do. They made it clear that the reason for coming home was to be with family, not friends. She was not allowed to contact friends the first time she came home. DO NOT LET YOUR SON MAKE THE RULES. You need to be clear on what he can and cannot do and if he doesn't like it too bad. Good luck!! Jane [/QUOTE]
