Also "experts" in this field lack consistent language, treatment, and standards. Each one is regulated by state at varying levels, be very very careful about considering this option and be ready to hear the school, ore the person getting commission for sending you there, because they will tell you your child will likely kill themselves and use fear tactics like crazy.<br /><br />I too am a mother and a parent working to promote treating the family as a whole, because evidence shows it is best.<br /><br />I hightly recommend reading this recent article: http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/articles/40237/outsourcing-troubled-dc-kids/<br /><br />...as well as Maia Szalavitz's groundbreaking book "Help at Any Cost" uncovering how this industry is destroying families and children.Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18444102766056577175noreply@blogger.com
