Anyone grateful for the time at Spring Creek Lodge?
« Reply #105 on: February 16, 2006, 09:19:00 AM »
I probably wouldn't say I'm grateful for my time spent there at all - but I don't regret it. If I hadn't been there I woulda gotten worse and worse - I even relapsed after the program but not on any of my problem drugs - I still say away from them. It helped me realize that I am not invinceable and bad things can happen to me. I had no concept of that as a teen. Also - the ability to be blatantly honest with my mom and work out our problems is something I am definitely grateful for. Before getting arrested and being sent to SCL I hadn't spoken to my mom in almost a year. We had a really bad falling out. I was in a bad situation in general and I never would've gotten out without something to help  me realize that. I don't agree with everything they do at all, and I often worry that I am permenantly messed up by those seminars, but I had no sense of self worth or dignity before going there and I attribute that positive change to the program.

I wonder why there is over 600 kids in various anti-WWASP myspace groups, a relatively recent phenomenon while any pro-WWASP groups have yet to be created. Same for this site, tbfight.com, and various others. No pro-WWASP alumni sites. I wonder why?"


Part of that might have to do with WWASPS intentionally discouraging anyone having any contact with other programmies and during the program not letting you share contact information.

So, obviously, if they bought into the program, theyre told "no" and accept it.

As far as the reason youre alluding to...  :silly:

No wonder these places havent been closed down yet. You all are to busy fighting with each other about who had the worse experience or who is lying than doing something. Venting is a great cathardic experience but it doesnt get much accomplished in this world. Makes me wonder if most of you are still teenagers in your head--did SCL break you down that much? Did they twist you all into being so hateful and jaded or was that part of the reason your folks sent you away? I think some people forget that their parents are to blame too...........

You are seeing the product of WWASPS. PTSD, anger issues, all for the bargain price of 4 grand per month for 2 years. Know any parents that are interested? If you were treated like shit and abused in a program would you not be angry about it? I dont think anyone is trying to accomplish anything other than figure out what happened to them and why.

Many, many, many children & teens are abused everyday and not in private institutions like SCL. Most of them grow up thinking its a normal behavior to treat people like shit. Its hard to feel sorry for kids with folks who can spend 4k a month at these programs; try living in a poor rural family with angry parents----more abuse than what you all went through.

What you argued was that the ends justified the means. You see Chelsea, torture has no accpetance in civilized society. If your program had an ounce of integrity it would give you the credit, not the program. If it had an ounce of integrity it would have provided you with certified teachers, not "self paced study" And if the program had an ounce of itegrity it wouldn't advertise with pictures that were not of the facilities.
And if you got pregnant and had to put the kid up for adoption, you would be giving some couple the greatest gift possible. Forever, they would thank you in their prayers.
