Do you have a troubled teen? Have you tried parent teen contracts? Have you tried parent coaching, parenting dvds, and everything else you can think of?
If you have a troubled teen and don't know what to do for help - maybe you need to consider a specialty school, private boarding school, or a residential treatment center.
Specialty Schools can help teens with a learning disability or another disorder that hampers their learning experience. Sometimes these schools specialize in LD students, ADHD, Aspergers, or other issues.
Private boarding schools can assist parents in need as well. Usually these are schools for teens with mild behavior disorders or conduct disorders. They can help with those that are acting out in school or at home and general defiance to authority.
Residential treatment centers are fully licensed centers where parents can place a teen that is in need of therapy. Sometimes RTCs are licensed drug treatment centers as well - so they can help with addiction. They may offer a 12 step program and counselors that specialize in addiction and teen drug abuse.
Find the best option for your teen today. Sometimes the problems are so complex it's impossible to sort them all out at home. Professional help is available.
