[QUOTE="slsh, post: 69101, member: 8"] Sorry, Janna - was in the dark for a day or so (ok, obviously *much* longer, but we won't go there [img]:rofl:[/img] ). But you *are* doing it right, in my humble opinion. You're being involved, assertive, frustrated, and hovering. It really will balance out. Yes, it would be much simpler if they'd read the reports and really hear us but... again, not to beat a dead horse, but can you imagine some of the parents they have to deal with-? thank you was 9 when he went to first Residential Treatment Center (RTC) - it was about an hour away on a good traffic day, a solid 2 hours on bad traffic days. We visited faithfully *every* weekend. I called every night for the first 2 years (until we tried a no-contact plan). I think you're being reasonable, but that's just remembering how it was when thank you was that age and remembering what I had to do for my own reassurance that he really was ok. Flooded basement versus visiting Janna for moral support.... hmmmmm, tough choice. I'll be there by noon. [img]:smile:[/img] [/QUOTE]
