Leave them in youre home and love them having a special child is special belive it or not they do have feelings even if they can not express it

Answer by a_mom
Isn’t your child assigned a social service worker? My sister has Down’s Syndrome and shortly after she turned 19 or 20 the state began checking up on her every year. The worker will ask both my parents and my sister what they want. They always ask if she would like to move out. They will help find a suitable home for the young adult. I would ask other parents what the group homes are like. I have worked at some that are great and some that are horrible places. It all depends on the workers. Good luck I know this is a difficult decision.

Question by Jasmine: What Exactly Happens In Drug Rehab?
I’m writing a short story for a school assignment and it’s about a teen going to rehab for heroin addiction. Obviously in order to write this I need a little insight on what it would actually be like to be in rehab. Like what do they make you do right when you check yourself in, and what activities or therapies would you partake in, daily? Also what rules and such do patients need to follow. If anyone could give me any insight or share your rehab stories I would really appreciate it.

Best answer:

Answer by Artur
Rehabs can vary from something spa like to something resembling a psych ward. Either way, they train your focus away from outside matters onto almost strictly you and your inner issues and addictions. I should be able to offer in-depth details for you, but it’s kind of depressing for me at this point in life. The success rate is actually pretty low for these treatments, though they are helpful in getting connected to what one will need to know in order to recover.

Answer by it doesn’t really matter
I personally do not know, but you could always go to a drug rehab facility’s website, such as this one: http://www.freedomdrugrehab.com/ and see what kind of programs they offer (just search Google for “drug rehab” or “drug rehab facility”. There are different kinds I’m sure. Also, you may want to try calling a few of them up and just say, “hey I’m doing research on drug rehab centers I was wondering what kind of treatments you offer for recovering heroin addicts” … or if that doesn’t work, you could call and pretend like you are looking for a facility for your friend to check into and find out about their programs that way (some people only want to talk to potential patients). I know that probably wasn’t the answer you were looking for, but I hope it helps!
