Putting Children in Therapy - see msg

Posted: Sep 3rd, 2018 - 3:00 pm In Reply to: Raising kids - stubborn fan

I think it's counterproductive to put children into therapy, when all that happens is they're sent right back into the same environment. Save for a a comforting environment a few hours a week while with the therapist, this really doesn't help the child. It's the home environment that needs to change. I think it's cruel to make the child responsible to change and cope. It's up to the grown ups to provide a loving environment.

Kids don't bounce off walls, threaten suicide, act in or act out, without a darn good reason.
