I can go with a community thing, as long as they still have their friends, and they get to keep their education going. There is nothing wrong in my view with a community help thingy.

Dude, did you read ALL I said? It was rambling, I'll admit, but you seemed to have skipped over this...

Quote
I'm not coming out here saying that you have to isolate children from hardship or theres no utility to them doing shit out in the woods, but INTRINSICALLY its no more therapeutic than making smores in their backyard. Its not the woods, its not the bugs, its not the tents, its not the latrines, its social interaction and ACTUAL growth and development. You might as well be running a convenience store or selling vegetables out of a truck... hell, that might actually be more worthwhile!


I agreed with you :silly:

My point is that helping to let people grow and build relationships and be supported and feel accepted and loved is a good thing, it was the whole time. The problem I have with the camps is that its all on the CAMPS TERMS. That would not have flown well with me, and it was clearly unnecessary. Plus I dont really see the necessity of doing it out in the damn woods! I suppose if I had to find a reason for it, it would be so theyre stuck with everyone else, plus it appears "wholesome" to be walking in pinestraw all day, I guess.

So yeah, want my alternative idea? Dont have them away from their family all damn day, and try my turnip truck idea... or make it some hobby based thing so they can do things they WANT TO DO, with other kids, instead of, say, just setting up camp and doing woodsy stuff... not everyone would like that. And no not everyone can 'grow' on someone elses terms. I did fine on my own terms and time table :razz:  

I do not believe in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance.

Wow, youth who judges have determined to be a threat to society and placed in community programs get more time with their families than those in RTC/TBSs.

For what offenses?
The facility I'm familiar with would deny a holiday visit or program break for an 'academic incomplete'. But then, it doesn't appear that they are so much focused on getting parent and child reunited. They do not give a guarentee unless you board your child at one of the traditional BS on their approved list. Too easy to dash the illusion that it 'worked' if the kid goes home.

TBS- Theraputic Boarding SCHOOL

The Key word there is School. Its a school. Why shouldent they get a day off for the federal holidays? Other schools do.

TSW, thats whats I ment, a day off. Not nessasaryly a lets send them home day, but a out-on-the-town day, or something like that. I have plenty of days right now that I can't go home while im at college, but I go out in the town and enjoy my self. Something like that would be nice, instead of being locked up on property in constraints of the group all day.
