[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 635907, member: 17461"] Great discussion question. I have always wished I had known, back when difficult child daughter fell apart, what I know now about rehab and condemnatory "helping professionals." We were babes in the woods when our family fell apart. The police were very good and helpful to us. There were three people, out of all those people we saw, who helped us. The rest -- the psychiatrists in particular -- were not only arrogant ( and expensive)...they were dead wrong. I've always wished I could sue them for the way they pretended to know how to help us. Precious, irreplaceable time was wasted. Because they implied that what was happening was some response to something bad in our family without telling us what it was, we parented our younger child out of a sense of brokenness and uncertainty. Can anyone prove he would have become an addict whether that had happened or not? No. So those therapists and psychiatrists and treatment centers get to keep all that money we paid them to help us, and my broken family just keeps suffering and trying to pick up the pieces. The place I have truly found comfort, have been upheld, have learned what it was that I needed to know is this site. I don't even know where we all would be today, had I not found this site.
