If you're talking to me, I can say with certainty what actually goes on there because my contacts (and one of my friends) still work there.
If you think I believe every random story coming from there, I don't. I carefully vet the information I get and check with sources. Keep reading for a while and you'll see. Go back in these threads and see what kind of names I've been called and how I've been labeled a "lying disgruntled ex-employee."
Please take note that every single thing that was deemed "a lie" by HLA supporters has actually been true. This holds for everything from the death of the RCA project to the lawsuits filed against children and former staff. Every single claim I have made has been verified and documented.
Nearly as important as having contacts inside is understanding the philosophy of the program and the attitudes of those who administer it. I seriously doubt that any kid or parent has a grip on what these people are like the way I do. I wrote the policy and procedure manuals for HLA. I understand the thinking behind those policies and procedures, as they were explained to me directly by the founder.
What you have to understand is that the faces have changed, but the program hasn't. It's just administered by new recruits. Therefore the same type of incidents happen again and again, only the names change.
If there's anything specific you'd like to talk about, please ask and I'll do my best not only to explain it, but to explain the thought processes/policies behind it.
