[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 761466, member: 15032"] Hi Helpless This is truly great news. I will warn you that Teen Challenge is VERY VERY difficult and VERY strict. They are not allowed to have much contact with you at all but it is a good thing. They really need to focus on THEMSELVES and not what mom, dad etc. are doing. My son begged to come home after 7 months. The program is 13 months long. We told him that we would NOT let him come home NOR help him in any way if he did not graduate from the program. This is where the rubber meets the road. They have heard it all before because they are former addicts. It was tough but he did it and it saved his life. You will have to be very hard hearted right now. He has a LONG way to go but if he does this it will help him tremendously get his head together and think of someone other than himself for a change. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
