If Your Teen is Acting Out and You Need Help,
Re-Creation Retreat Can Help

Teenagers are easily influenced by the communities they become involved in. In any one day a teenager can be involved in several communities at once including youth groups, school, sports teams, family, friends, clubs, and other communities. One or more of these communities can sometimes be detrimental to your daughter. Teens are often exposed to a variety of subjects, both good and bad, throughout the course of their life. Peer pressure from any one of these communities can push them to make either good or bad decisions. When it comes to teenagers, many parents may blame themselves for how their children act. While it’s natural for teenagers to separate themselves from their parents during this time, they are developing into adults after all, this leaves vulnerable to outside influences. Many of these influences can be bad and often promote bad behavior.

Teens Need a Safe Environment to Mature and Heal

At our boarding schools for troubled youth, we provide a safe environment for your teen to grow and prosper. As a boarding school for troubled teens, we believe no child should be left behind. We use community based therapy to teach our students how to interact with each other on a mature level and teach them important values and principles to help them succeed in life. Students at our facilities are able to find themselves and to heal in a safe environment far away from the bad influences in their lives. There are many factors that can contribute to the behavioral problems or attitudes teen girls can have during this confusing time in their life. It can be a bad relationship, friends, and stress from home, school, or anything else. Even the best efforts of excellent parents may find themselves unable to know how to help their teenage daughter. In many cases, it’s not the parents fault.

We Keep Them on a Strict Schedule

Another aspect of schools for troubled teens is giving teenagers a structured environment to learn and grow in. While there are individuals who may thrive in an environment without any structure, for many teenagers this lack of direction can be detrimental to them. We keep our students on a strict schedule that we closely monitor to prevent them from participating in undesirable distractions. This high functioning environment gives students some experience on what it’s like out in the real world. While it can be stressful for some students, it’s necessary to help teens to grow and heal as people. In a structured environment their given direction and can focus on their studies rather than spending time with people who are a bad influence on them. Once students leave our facilities they have the skill and tools necessary to deal with the real world.

We Set a Foundation for Good Relationships

Teenagers can often become confused about the important values like compassion, trustworthiness, truthfulness, and others that are vital to having good relations with other people. Under our care and guidance, students learn to hold themselves and others accountable for their actions. This teaches students to take responsibility for their own choices and actions, and will help them to make good decisions for themselves in the future. By the time your daughter leaves our boarding schools for troubled youth, she will know how to recognize good and bad communities. When an individual surrounds themselves with successful people, they experience growth in their own lives too. They’re able to make better decisions in their life and thrive in their chosen career paths. Your daughter deserves the best for her future, no matter how harsh it may seem. Even the best parents can find themselves ill equipped to help their child when they’re exposed to bad communities. Here at Re-Creation Retreat, we’ll teach your daughter the important values of being a good person and how to give back to communities who care about them as people.
