Timing is everything. This is true in so many areas of life. It’s true with hitting a curveball. It’s true about making a joke and about offering words of wisdom. It’s true about investing in crypto…boy, is it true about investing in crypto!
It’s also true when considering the right time to send a son or daughter to a therapeutic boarding school. Wait too long, and you’ll lose the window that you have to make an impact. Send them too soon, and you risk communicating that you don’t care enough to keep trying. Both extremes are dangerous, and it’s not like it’s better to err on one side than the other. You want the timing to be just right.
On this episode of A Time to Sharpen, Brandon and I will try to help parents answer the impossibly difficult question about when it’s “time” to send a child away from their home to get the help they need. It’s a question sent to us by one of our listeners, so we know it’s a good one.
