TITLE: “Parenting, Tough Choices, Change, Challenge, Hope, and Healing”
SPECIAL GUEST: Dr. Andy Sapp and Dr. Chris McRoberts, Co-Founders of the Cherry Gulch Therapeutic Boarding School
Deciding to send a child off to residential treatment is a difficult decision and a huge commitment but for many parents who do they ultimately save their child’s life and help their family heal. Yet for many of them this difficult decision is made even more difficult by well-intentioned friends and family who have not walked in their shoes and don’t understand how challenging family life has become or how serious the challenges their child is facing are. Just at the time when these parents need the most support they often feel judged and misunderstood.
