A member asked:

Can you tell me what you suggest if a child at the age of 11 gets sent to a mental institution, will he/she be able to go to college?

Depends.: That depends on his behavior and mental stability. Just because he is sent to a mental hospital doesn't mean that he has to stop studying. In fact long term treatment in child and adolescent facilities include continuous education at the level the child was before he was admitted.
