While I absolutely agree with Jenny, there is a line where family is preventing needed psychiatric care for an adolescent that is too much. This kid has a diagnosed, treatable disorder that could have serious effects on his ability to cope and exist independently as an adult, and his family is preventing him from seeing a therapist and claiming that his issues are caused by his lack of belief in their god.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
