Ideal Camp for Troubled Teens
Are Boot Camps the answer for all youth?
Posted: July 1, 2004
Boot camps are definitely not the answer for children.
If a child has suicidal issues, is severely depressed, self
mutilating, or has a serious psychiatric diagnosis they would be
better served in a therapeutic boarding school, residential
treatment center, or in some cases even a psychiatric hospital.
