WOW. I just wanted to say a couple of things in reply to your post. In regards to the internet high school I think it might be beneficial for you and your parents to look into what the school provides. As redicilous as the idea may seem, if you don't look into what the school aims to achieve and sucess rates you'll never know. I think surely they have to follow some guidelines and criteria if there actually classing themselves as a school. Maybe it might be better for him. I think he needs to sit down with you and your parents and you need to ask him why he wants to go to the 'internet' school and what he thinks he will gain from it. You may be suprised by his answers. Even if it helps only a little, you will get some idea how well he's thought this idea out. I loved school as a child.. just hated the people in school. I know how he feels about not wanting to go. If he is being bullied and has no friends it must be hard on him, being accepted is a big part of school life. I see you anger at his so called waste of money, but the money shouldn't really be an issue, after all I can sense you care about him you did after all come here seeking some help for him. As for your question about how much do therapists cost, i really wouldn't know sorry, others in here are bound to know. If he is depressed as his councellor says he is then I think that may have somethign to do with his sleep pattern - depressed people often have unusual sleeping pattens. When he is awake is his time spent completely on his PC? If it is perhaps he needs help there. The internet can be a powerfull addiction, thats a proven fact. I myself spend far too much time online. Anyway I think he really needs to go see someone and soon, keep us posted on how it goes along please. Maybe you can persuade him to come check this site out himself? Oh and you never said his age i don't think, how old is he?
