Don't make the same mistake we made. I'm here to help you find the right program...Several years ago I put my own teenage son in a therapeutic school. That program was a big mistake. So after much research I found a great program and moved him there. After experiencing a bad program, and a good one, I decided to help other parents find great programs to prevent the heartache and financial loss we experienced. Now I talk to dozens of parents daily, matching them up with Christian boarding schools that can best help their teenager. I visit these schools and we know the people there. And I receive regular reports from parents who have placed their teenager there. So I am in a unique position to help you in this important decision. There is NO CHARGE for this service. Just fill in the online inquiry form and I'll send more information about the best possible options for your child. -- Tamara Bolthouse
