When I went to West Ridge I was having problems with my parents and was failing school because of bad choices I was making. In addition to these challenges, I am also diagnosed with Reactive Attachment. Since I have been at West Ridge, I have had great changes in my behavior. I am a much better student and will be graduating from high school in June. I've played high school sports and made the all state teams in both baseball and soccer.
I am planning to go to college and get a degree in marine biology. I have grown in understanding why I react to situations and I'm doing better at communicating with my parents. Our relationship is improving as I make good choices, problem solve and choose good friends. I can now see a future for myself that is successful and I am happy.
