Why traditional boot camps may not solve your teen’s problems
Summer programs for troubled youths typically use strict discipline and structured routines to handle teen misbehavior. Yet, these methods are not very effective for serious mental health problems. Here’s why:
- 🚫 Intense discipline: Strict methods can overwhelm teens with major issues.
- 🤕 Emotional neglect: Often, these programs don’t focus on teens’ mental health.
- 💔 Temporary changes: Improvements in behavior from these programs are usually short-lived.
- 👤 Lack of individual attention: There’s often no one-on-one therapy for more complex issues.
- 🔍 Overlooked root causes: These programs fail to tackle the underlying causes of teens’ behaviors.
