Obviously the people who are slamming this program didn't want their kids to get sober or had any other experience with rehabs. They all require you to hang out with other sober people. This program saved my son's life after many, many other treatment programs, psychologists, psychiatrists, counselors and therapists. At no time does Crossroads EVER offer to ""cure"" anyone. Sobriety is a personal choice. You are given the ""tools"" on how to achieve sobriety. It is up to the individual to use those tools. There is no cure for addiction. And no 12 step program rehab will tell you there is. \r

You can't expect to send your child to a treatment program and they do all the work. It's a family disease. You have to learn the do's and dont's of living with an addict. I feel sorry for the ignorant snobby people who speak so poorly of and belittle the counselors. These people are the most loving, caring, dedicated people you will ever meet! They spend 24/7 caring for these young adults. I mean 24/7!! They don't take time off. They are always there for the addicts and the parents!! \r

And $20,000 is nothing!! Check into other treatment programs...$40,000, $50,000, $60,000! Minimum! There is no price on saving your loved one!\r
\r
I cannot speak highly enough of this program. No other treatment program offers the 24 hour support like Crossroads. \r
\r
This is an amazing program and if you are at the end of your rope and truly want to save a young person, GIVE THIS PROGRAM A CHANCE! IT'S INCREDIBLE!! I OWE EVERYTHING TO THE COUNSELORS FOR SAVING MY SON AND OUR FAMILY. \r
