TEEN QUESTION/PROBLEM:

My boyfriends family decided to put him in a troubled teen home or rehab for teens. They won't tell me where he is or when he is coming home or if i will ever be able to talk to him. he is not a huge drug attic. he just took a few pills every now and then. what is usually the amount of time until he will be able to call me or me to go and see him? and if he does get to talk to me over the phone will he be able to tell me where he is. his parents took him and wouldnt even let him say goodbye. i was with him everysingle day since march and i just feel betrayed and i cant be happy until he is back or i can talk to him.

TEEN LINE WROTE:
Hi, Thank you for contacting TEEN LINE. It must be so tough and devastating to have your boyfriend taken away without any notice. It sounds like you think its really unfair. You mentioned that your boyfriend wasn't a major drug addict. This must be confusing for you as to why he was sent away. I know that different rehabs have different rules and restrictions, so I can't tell you when you will be able to see or talk to him again. I hope that you have alot of support in your life that can help you through this hard time. You are always welcome to call us here at (800) 852-8336 or live chat with us any time between 6-10 p.m. PST. .
