I lived in what they called back then a Recovery House for Alcoholic Women with many many more rules and structure than what you have described for 90 days.
IT WAS THE BEST THING I COULD HAVE DONE. No I didn't like it at first, but I also found out that as my 'attitude' improved, I got a job, I started showing 'progress' some of the 'rules' became more lenient and I LEARNED SO SO MUCH about 'surviving' ie Living Sober and Clean out there in that big wide world, and I was 36.
Look on the bright side.........................he was willing, this is the next step in his recovery, and it will help him to make him a better person.
