The teen with problems: She has always been bright, but unmotivated. Getting by would be her moto. Average to below average grades, very overweight, poor hygene. Easy to talke to, talks a good talk, not doing anything terribly bad, or terribly good. Until
Teen and family agree for her last year in school she would live away from home, with parents close by. This was mutually agreeable.
Teen now desides to not go to school, and even skip on going to work, which she had previously liked. What does she do instead...sleep. She has been encouraged, in many different ways to do the right thing, but she doesn't do it.
So now, this teen has used up most of her options, parents, school, work and will soon be faced with the results of these decisions. No money, no work, family distanced, no education.
Is there anything, any one who can turn a person like this around. A boot camp, a program, the military, a group...
