Does anyone know of a good support group?

Does anyone know of a good support group for mothers who have out of control teenagers? ?

  • My friend is about to lose her mind because her son is in a special school because of emotional issues and now she has to go thru lawyers and the school system in order to get him into another school that she feels is best for him..any such support group? by the way she lives in the suburbs of Philadelphia.

  • Answer:

    Sometimes where you work offers employees an EAP, which is Employee Assistance Program. You can call them and tell them the problem, they can recommend a therapist or group for her to join. The EAP usually covers the cost of the 1st three visits. If she doesn't have that thru her work she might check with her insurance to see what sort of plans they have. Good luck to her, and thank god she has a friend like you that cares enough to help her out.

there is a group called Tough Love and they are all over the country. Check with your local school counselors and see if they have a local number for the Tough Love support group in your area.

She should talk to her local pychiatric unit- they help alot with getting kids into the situation they need.
