Can you send your teen to boot camp without going to court?
Sending a child to a teen boot camp is a very difficult thing to do. It can be done without a court order. Some states still recognize that a parent is the best one to find help for their child. These states will allow parents to place their teen in a boot camp or boarding school even if the teen doesn't want to go. Some people believe it is abusive to take an action like this, but many parents find themselves in danger. This can happen when the teen becomes violent, steals from them, or begins selling drugs out of their home. Not all boot camps are equal and it is important to research any option prior to sending a teen there. It is always a good idea to visit any potential placement option prior to enrolling a teen.
How to Choose the Right Teen Boot Camp?
You might be reading this because you’ve thrown your hands up for the final time and are ready to send your child away to teen boot camp to really make a believer out of him/her. The truth is that it’s hard to send your teen away to “learn the hard way.” No parent ever wants to come to the end of the rope and find out that teen boot camp is the only solution left. However, sometimes it has to be done. Of course, sending your child away is hard, but in the midst of it all, choosing the right teen boot camp is even harder. You want your child to really take something away from the experience, but you might want that same experience to also be affordable. These are some things to consider when searching out a teen boot camp that will be perfect for you and your child. Your first step is to take a look at the things your child is doing. Do they have trouble with drugs or alcohol? Are they acting out in an uncontrollable manner? Are they disobedient no matter what you do or what kind of incentive you offer? You’ll want to pick among boarding schools that specialize in the specific problem areas your teen has. You’ll also want to focus on a teen boot camp that is both mentally and physically challenging. The point of sending your teen to boot camp is to open their eyes and develop appreciation and understanding of life and others. Also, how long are you planning on enrolling your child in teen boot camp? Most terms tend to be short, however long terms exist as well. Some long terms even allow the adolescent to attend the teen boot camp while returning home. Consider whether or not you’d like this type of schedule for your child. It will usually depend on the severity of the situation and the amount of money you’d like to invest in the teen boot camp. Lastly look online or locally for reviews of each teen boot camp as well. Some camps have reputations for being much too harsh. Find out what others are saying about your prospective camps.
