Boot camps for children are typically designed for teenagers, usually between the ages of 13 to 17. These programs are often used as a last resort for parents seeking to address behavioral issues in their children. It is important to thoroughly research and consider the specific program's requirements and suitability for your child before making a decision to enroll them in a boot camp.
Well, honey, the minimum age for most boot camps is typically 16 years old with parental consent. But let's be real, sending your kid to boot camp should be a last resort after you've exhausted all other options. Trust me, dealing with a teenager is tough, but boot camp should never be your go-to solution.
They cannot send you to military boot camp, but they can make arrangements for you to go to a boot camp type experience. Until you reach the age of adulthood, your parents control where you live. If you are not living up to their rules and expectations, they can choose to have you live in a boot camp environment.
There are no law governing this. However, children age 8 and below are generally considered too young to attend child boot camp.
There are some camps that will take kids as young as 10. Be aware, however, that child/teen boot camps have a horrendous reputation. I would not recommend putting a child in their care.
You start boot camp at whatever age you join the military. Seventeen is the youngest that you can start (and you need parental permission).
If you are to the point where you need to send a child somewhere because they are disrespectful, then sign them up for the military. They will quickly be whipped into shape. At the age of 17 your child should be a senior in high school, they can sign up and when they get out of school they will be shipped off to boot camp. when they come back they will be a different person
No, a parent cannot kick a 14-year-old out in any state of the US. A parent is responsible for providing for their child until the child reaches the age of majority (18) or they are legally emancipated (there no situation in which a 14-year-old would be emancipated). However, they certainly can send the child to live with a relative, send the child to boot camp, military school, etc.
The learning camp deals with kids that have adhd. Here is there site http://www.learningcamp.com/
As an alternative to boot camps for troubled teens there are many awesome programs that you can send your 12 year old to. www.AspenAcademy.com has several options for children from age 11 and up.
Boot camps for an 8 year can be a difficult thing to find. Most boot camps and boarding schools will not accept a youth that is under the age of 12. There are a few places where parents can find help for an 8 yr old. They also have programs that parents can implement at home, rather sending their child away. There is one boot camp that will sometimes make exceptions for a child as young as 8. It is important for parents to research carefully any option prior to sending their child to it.
If you live in the US... A parent cannot kick a 15-year-old out in any state of the US. A parent is responsible for providing for their child until the child reaches the age of majority (18) or they are legally emancipated (there no situations in which a 15-year-old would be emancipated). However, they certainly can send the child to live with a relative, send the child to boot camp, military school, etc.
With parental consent you can elist and go through basic training at the age of 17.
No. Boot camps don't take children that young for liability reasons. The youngest age I've seen for a boot camp is 12.
