That is a nice troll. You're going to get some major responses with that.

Still, the most recent posting from an actual graduate is the one below and it pretty much sums up what we've all been saying:  same names, same program, different spin.

"Ha. You don't think I went to Carlbrook? Ask me anything you wish kind sir. Integritas, Amicitia, Animus, Teneo, Veneratio? Who's your hero? What about your truth? Or how about your superhero? No, I know, what's your lie? What about your nightmare? How about you go do some bioenergetics? Go listen to your fucking Mike and the Mechanics, or do you not remember the song it's not easy? I don't know who you are and I honestly don't care. I speak from my experiences and I don't speak for anybody but myself. I say what I saw with my eyes during my incarceration. Yes, I said incarceration. What else do you call a place that the staff is able to withhold and monitor all your communications with family and friends? Where you are monitored by security at night and every window and door has an alarm? Don't try to discredit me because you can't believe the truth."

Nobody has refuted any of the information in this post."

That didnt take long

Dear Mr. Woodbury,

I know you are probably very busy, but I just wanted to take the time to tell you how thankful I am for the type of work you do- it saved my life. My name is Rxxxxxx and I am from Phoenix, Arizona. Like many other teenagers that you work with, I was not on a good path, confused, and out of control. My parents started seeing Miriam Bodin in Northern California, and I was sent to the Second Nature Wilderness Program in Utah. After working with Dr. Matt Hoig there, I went to the Carlbrook School in Southern Virginia and graduated this past May 2005. As I said earlier, the eighteen months I spent there saved my life. I just want to say that Carlbrook is a very special place to me, and I hope it keeps running for a long time- I read on your website that Cedu closed down, and I hope that that never will happen to Carlbrook. While I was at Carlbrook I got to work with so many awesome adults such as Tim Brace, Jonathan Gurney, Matthew Lovell, Robert Somers, and so many awesome other people. I just wanted to write you a note because when I visited your website, I can see that you care about so many kids, and I respect what you do a lot. Thank you for your time, and thank you for caring about us teenagers so much.

Sincerely,

Rxxxxxxxxx

"Why are there no new postings - nothing since late April - did the school step in and stop the faculty from telling the truth"

This is absolute trolling.

I don't agree with this statement at all.  We have a Carlbrook mom who absolutely loves Carlbrook, yet she posts hundreds of messages here slamming anyone who had a different experience or view.  

She not only slams everyone who doesn't agree about Carlbrook, she relentless trolls other threads and has multiple logins that she uses to "personally troll" people who disagree (like me).

So, the theory that "happy programmies" don't troll/post is absolutely untrue.  They are some of the most relentless and viscious posters, like the Carlbrook mom troll.  

For these people the Machiavellian edict that "the end justifies the means" holds true in a couple of ways:
     1.  They don't really care about what goes on behind closed doors at the program so long as their kids stops getting smart with them/conforms.
     2.  They have no compunction about trying to personally destroy posters with differing opinions, even going so far as soliciting information about them for the express purpose of affecting their career or family life.

"Happy programmies" are some of the worst of the worst actors, as evidenced by their behavior here and in their home lives.

I see we got bored with ASR and now we're on to bashing another school that nobody has any first hand knowledge of.  Somehow I sort of doubt the banter will change.

Hey, troll, read the thread.  There are several personal accounts.  Just because you're too lazy to read doesn't mean the information isn't there.

Dear Mr. Woodbury,

I too would like to thank you very much.  My parents read your glowing report about Paradise Cove and decided that I too, could benefit. And I did.
I am so grateful that I have actually named a body part after you. The largest of my many boils I got at Paradise Cove is now the Lon Woodbury boil.

 Ever since I was snatched up by an escort service I have had fantasies of bondage, and being kidsnapped. Thanks to you I now have a much more diverse sex life.

Yes when I was in iso the Samoan guards fed me with their feet, but don't worry, I do not blame you for this. In fact it is pretty neat. Whenever we go to a nice restaurant I whip off my sandels, grab the shirmp cotail with my toes, and shove them in the mouth of my wife. It does seem to draw a bit of commotion but the manager is very happy because of all the money he saves on utensils, me not having to use any.

Sittin in them stalls for a couple of month gave me arthritis but thanks to you Uncle Lon, even that turned really, really good, because now I can park  anywhere I want--with my fabulous handicapped sticker. Who says theres no advatage to being crippled.

Thanks to you and Paradise Cove, I know everything about how to discipline my own children. Like the time a staff member threw that little kid Stephens. dog over a cliff.

We too have had many dogs. I buy the puppy. Wait for  my kid to get really attached to it. And then when he's bad I take the puppy and throw out of the apartment window. Sometimes it splatters on a passing car. Yea, they stop and get out. And theyre so ticked off. But when I explain it's behavior modification for my child, they are so much more understanding.

Sometimes I DON'T EVEN HAVE TO DROP the little creature. I just do a little dangeling. Saves on the expense of replacing it.

It works every time. The little wuss gets all teary eyed and begging--and very compliant. Uncle Lon, I call you that because I feel very close to you. You saved my life and the life of my children  and their children, and many children not even born yet. Gratefully,

Carl Brooks.

The thread had died until some bored anti-program troll started stirring the pot.

My mom is the "Carlbrook Troll Mom" from pennsylvania.  I'm ashamed to admit it, but it's true.  She's angry, she drinks all the time and yells at us kids all the time.  She sent me away to Carlbrook because I didn't "keep my room clean".  She hates me and my dad too.  All she does is drink all day and write on the internet posing as other people who she calls "sinners" like some lady named Julie.  I told her I was being abused at Carlbrook, but she told me I was a liar and just amnipulating her to get out.  I can't win.  I'm stuck with my mom and the program until I'm 18.  I wish I could just get away from her.

Well, finally, Carlbrook listened to my advice and gave the kids internet access.  See how much I have accomplished?  Now, you stupid little fuck-up. stop impersonating other people and grow up.

Mom, please stop.  You're an embarrassment to our family.  I wish you would just go to rehab and stop drinking so much.  I talk about it in group every day.  You should get sober and stop spending all your time impersonating other people and try to be a good mom.  I have been having a "relationship" with my advisor, so he lets me use the internet, as long as there's "something in it" for him.  He thinks I should move in with him after the program because you drink too much and yell allthe time.  He says that's unhealthy.

The people posting on this thread do not know how messed up this woman is. I was a former 'friend' of hers at another popular message board, and she confided secrets to me that were disturbing and vicious. Sending the kids away was a blessing to them, anything was better than her.
