[QUOTE="DrPepper, post: 487518, member: 13223"] My husband and I went to visit my son today and drop off a few of his things. When we got there his counselor said he'd be right out, and that he was getting his hair cut. We were like what?! a haircut? Hmmph. A few minutes later he walks in sporting a mohawk. Not a big spikey one, but nonetheless. We weren't really expecting that and if he wanted to convey the message that "see, I'm getting, better in here" well, that message was not received. Good golly, what next. He also continues to look over-medicated so that combined with the new haircut, left us feeling a bit unsettled. Yet, you can't judge a book by its cover. He said he's feeling good and is feeling good about where he's at. Of course, we are dealing difficult child personality #1, the pliable one, the one that makes big plans and all things are possible. Experience says this won't last. I mean, I hope it does, but we don't really know what will happen, do we? Makes sense that this place isn't too cushy cush so nobody gets too comfy. I get that. It's actually nicer than my first impression. it's really about the program anyhow. I've looked online about these wilderness therapy sessions. Wish I could afford something like that to follow-up the traditional therapy. Just keep him moving. Still feel sad about everything. Life goes on. [/QUOTE]
