Regardless of the situation troubled teens create the parents are still responsible legally, morally, and ethcially to provide the very best education. They won't always be "troubled teens", but they will need a solid education for the rest of their lives. This is why therapeutic boarding schools for troubled teens are so popular. The troubled teen is taken out of the negative environment that he or she has created and is placed into a safe therapeutic environment where they focus becomes emotional growth, emotional intelligence, personal responsibility, and personal accountability. Moreover, once the foundation is re-established then next venture is to restore the troubled teen academically.

Most parents, regardless of educational background, have high hopes for their children when it comes to academic success, even parents of troubled teens. Those of us with a family tradition of scholastic achievement expect our children to excel pretty much as we did, and we’ll go out of our way to see that they do. Parents of troubled teens still have a keen desire to educate their child, even when their educational experience has been devastatingly a failure. The education is something you never give up on.... parents who may not have had our educational advantages are just as eager—often more so—to see their children succeed in school. For many of them, no sacrifice is too great when it comes to giving their child the education they never had.

So when adolescents develop behavioral problems, mood disorders or social issues that interrupt their education, parents are doubly distressed. For troubled teens, almost by definition, have trouble in school. Dealing with a troubled teen is an enormous challenge for both parents and teachers. Public schools, hard pressed to meet the academic needs of normal students, are often not equipped to meet the emotional demands of the problem student. Many parents consider therapeutic boarding schools, boot camps, wilderness therapy camps, residential treatment centers, or military academy's just to get their child back into a classroom, but even in those closed and structured environments many troubled teens will continue to struggle.

What’s a parent to do? Many start by seeking advice from other parents who have dealt or are dealing with a troubled teen. Next is to seek an educational consultant, perhaps an educational consultant who has personal experience with their own troubled teen. Hearing about a therapeutic school or program first-hand from someone who’s been in your shoes can save you valuable time, money, and frustration when it comes to helping your own child. At Teen Challenge, more than 70 percent of our students are enrolled because of the direct or indirect recommendation or referral of parents, former students, or educational consultants. The other 30 percent come from independent educational consultants who handle special educational needs clients (troubled teens). These professional educational consultants, many of whom are former educators, therapists, parent coaches, or guidance counselors, can help you identify a suitable therapeutic school or program for your troubled teen. Depending on the troubled teen’s specific problems, recommendations might include emotional growth schools, therapeutic boarding schools, group homes for troubled teens, home-based residential programs, outdoor therapeutic programs, wilderness programs, or residential treatment centers.
