It can be a lonely world for a parent of a difficult, defiant teen as they seek solutions to the upheaval in their family and the concerns for their child. By the time parents begin researching therapeutic boarding schools as treatment for troubled teens, they have generally exhausted typical resources such as restriction of privileges, school counselors, advice from clergy, help from family, bargaining and bribing, family counselors or therapists, and often the lists goes on. Parents can end up feeling overwhelmed, isolated and like failures. Not exactly what they pictured when parental life began anew.
The good news for those parents is that there are many top rated boarding schools available that will provide reliable solutions for your teen and your family. Generally these schools offer accelerated, accredited schooling, which is a real bonus for teens behind in their studies and in danger of failing. The therapeutic boarding schools have a strong therapy component. At Christian Boarding Schools they offer a spiritual growth component to their program, something very important to faith-based families. Some parents are seeking more rigid structure and lean towards a Teen Boot Camp or Military School. Some schools offer job skills training, time management and budget management in helping students prepare to be contributing, independent adults.
So don’t give up, parents. In the words of Winston Churchill, “If you are going through hell, keep going.” There are answers for you.
At Core Solutions, we work with families to find solutions for their teens. We work with a number of top rated boarding schools to help you find the right therapeutic boarding school or Christian boarding school for your family. Each therapeutic boarding school we recommend views parents as partners in the healing process, not as adversaries or interference as happens at many schools.
The top rated boarding schools we recommend communicate effectively with parents at every stage of the process. There are opportunities for parents to get involved at family events, family weekends, seminars, video conferencing, and workshops. In addition, parents have access to online status reports and online communities where parents can find valuable information and support to help them through the process.
Unlike some companies, Core Solutions is a small company staffed with people that have been through situations similar to yours, which provides us with a unique perspective that has helped many families. We provide personal attention as we work with you to find a therapeutic boarding school that will meet the specific needs of your family. We take your family values and the specific needs of your teen into consideration when recommending programs.
