If you are the parent (or grandparent) of a teen
and you are looking at this page, then you
are likely looking for answers to
questions about a child who is causing your
trouble at home.
The good news is that there is help available.
Teen Harvest is a resource for hurting parents.
We provide Bible-based, pastoral counseling for
families in crisis. We have other resources we
can direct you to, if you need alternative
placement for your teen that we cannot provide
in
our setting.
Residential placement at Teen Harvest is an
option for parents whose teens are wanting help
and in need of a change of venue. Many teens may
say they don’t want help or do not think
they need any help, but really do want to get
help once they come for a visit. Reasons for
this
vary, but may include the fact that:
- We
are small in size and live in
family units.
-
We have many acres of land to
explore
-
There is a peaceful, happy
atmosphere.
-
We have lots of pets and farm
animals
-
Our school is small and the
student can receive a lot of
individual attention.
Of course there may be an number of reasons why
they will want to come to Teen Harvest, and many
teens cannot express why. Sometimes you may
simply be need to remove them from their peer
influence in order for them to get on the right
track.
You, as a parent,
need to know that sometimes it is the best
solution for your family to be apart for a time
to find a way to regroup, but our goal is always
reconciliation of the family when it is
possible. That is why our program involves
working with both parents and children to
discover the source of the problems, overcome
them and help the family to come together and
live in harmony with one another. In some
cases, we are able to restore the relationship
and keep the family together so out-of –home
placement does not become necessary. I would
encourage you to contact us right away and let
us help you find the solution for your
situation.
