You could do that and you would probably leave pretty much empty.  I am sure someone will be having a bad day and get on, though.

It?s nice to get conformation from someone else, thank you ASR person.  I have been mentioning this policy (and many others) for about a year, on and off and I don?t think anyone believed me.  Most are use to places like straight which is much stricter.   I really don?t expect anyone to come out and say ?wow, I didn?t know that, I guess all TBS and RTC are not all alike.?  This guy, Niles, started to think independently about 6 months ago and he got blasted by most of the regulars here (which was too bad, he seems to be sharp) and quickly rescinded his position and got back in line.  
But the information will serve the purpose of informing the people here that things are changing, not all schools are the same (There is hope after all) and that many kids are getting the help they need and deserve.

Sure, why can't the kid use the school van to be transported off the grounds by the school safely to the local bus station or airport? Hell, their parents paid enough for their therapuetic boarding, surely there's a slush fund somewhere.


Because they are responsible for them.  Its really not a matter of transportation cost.  If their parents are meeting them or agree that they can fly off to wherever, then I am sure this can be arranged.
Here is a different way to look at it.  If a parent sent their kid to say an outward bound program or summer experience overseas etc.  the kids can?t just decide we are going to walk away from the group and go home, if they are under aged.  The parents would have to be notified and agree to allow them to fly home early and then they would be escorted to the airport etc.  If they just ran off the local authorities would need to be notified.  These are not decisions the schools or programs can make on their own.  This applies to the TBS?s also.

He forgets to log back in after he uses his proxies to pretend that he's more people than he is. Pathetic really.

Oh, I bet that is nice for you, Who.

"CONFORMation"?  Slip of the tongue, or fingers as it were?  Too funny.

BTW, whadda ya make of this Mar 05 ad from struggling teens.



March 05- Employment Ad at StrugglingTeens

SCHOOL NURSE- Provide medical and programmatic/psychological nursing care to students. Must have current state RN license and knowledge of psychotropic medications. MAB training and experience working with SEVERELY MENTALLY ILL patients is preferred.



RESIDENTIAL MENTORS- Supervise and interact with individual or grouped students to improve caring, socialization, and other life skills. Must have high school diploma or GED and at least of one year of experience in youth corrections, residential treatment, or other related environment. College level courses in Social Sciences preferred.

http://www.strugglingteens.com/employme ... river.html



Didn't the ASR spokesperson say they were taking milder kids. Maybe he meant "sedated" kids. What's MAB training?



Hey, and check out those "Mentors". Parents paying $5000 a month for college prep and their kid hanging out with someone with a GED and

a year in youth corrections. "




Niether of these are ads for ASR.  Check the paper and the real ads are nothing like this.  Check The Daily Hampshire Gazette.
