Wow how do you know all that? You must live next door to those people, the article never stated any of that.
Households get in trouble. sometimes the parents are in trouble and sometimes its the kids or a combination. Typically They all need help, its a family problem, sometimes family members need to be removed to work on their own issues independently, sometimes they need to seek counseling as a group or both. But you cant just read a story and pretend to know and just blame the kid or blame the parent."
Blah, blah, fucking blah.
That has what to do with the fact that when a kid is kidnapped off to a TBS/RTS/Program/Camp/WHATEVER, that its not HELP for the kid, its not "working on issues", it not room to breathe or time out, its a PROGRAM.
Theyre anything but pleasant or time to work on issues, but apparently the only thing that you read are brochures as glossy as the look in your eyes. I mean fuck, a lot of programmies are PROUD of how "tough" all it is. Does that sound like time to work through a god damn thing except survival?
Programs dont give a child space, freedom, love, support, time out, a break, breathing room, any of that crap. Theyre drug in terrified, put through intake, and made to conform, do as told, and go through the fucking LGAs, while mommy and daddy are at home lamenting themselves and being the sole victim as hard as they can.
Ive yet to see a program address issues, baghead. All Ive seen is comformity and submission and obedience. That doesnt help with anything except survival skills for a malevolent dictatorship. I do see the damage from the austere, almost ascetic environment a program has with severe punishment for anything but total obedience and the shit the LGAs do - which is basically just like painting over rust. The real damage (and issue) is still there, but all the parent sees when the kid comes out is obedience... being "just like the little kid I wanted back", and the seminar's bullshit making the kid act happy and obedient to please the parent.
Hey, jackass, why not go talk to Ashley or Perrigaud? Oh, or Helena Handbasket? They've been in programs.
