[QUOTE="Genny, post: 249099, member: 95"] When we sent difficult child to wilderness camp, I looked at it this way: at least she was safe, sheltered, supervised and getting [I]positive[/I] peer pressure. Those are things I could not guarantee when she was defiantly running around and staying out all night at 14-15 years of age. You might want to use humor - when he says you just want him sent away say, "if that were the case, I wouldn't care that you're out with your friends all the time!" Stick to your guns and don't fall for the guit trap! Good luck! Genny [/QUOTE]
