I would like to say thank you to everyone at PRI

Everyone was wonderful to my CHILD. I didn’t think would even want to stay and would be upset and miserable but my CHILD really liked everyone and misses them. But is happy to be home. My CHILD is much more cooperative and happy. Thank you for taking care of MY CHILD.

Thank you to everyone that took such excellent care of my CHILD. My CHILD has yet to attack me, bite me, say the b word, throw something, hit the walls, or anything negative actions. Thank you so very much.
