Struggling Teens does not represent the interests of most parents who post on fornits, you asshole. I'm out there, knocking on doors, advocating for kids' civil rights, working this thing from as many different angles as I can to ensure better options for our teens with mental health disorders, trying to ensure accountability, not having a frickin pity party. What the hell are you doing?
People here are doing plenty...fuck off with that noise, dumbass.
Examples please.
For one, the recent post about the request by Miller to the FTC to investigate deceptive advertising by programs and ed cons is very helpful!!! Second, Fornits has a very large readership in case you haven't noticed. What gets posted here gets SEEN by the media, government officials, parents, teens, survivors, etc.
Fornits has helped many people, including yourself, PB. Trolls thrive on attention. Feed them at your own risk.
I don't think the readership is nearly as vast as you think. otherwise, there would be a LOT more civil rights work going on to protect these kids. Got any hard numbers to back up that claim of a "very large readership"? With less than 5000 registered users, how large can the reader base be? I'm a reasonably open minded person, living in middle class America, witha large base of friends and acquaintances who are parents, and I can't think of 1 person I know who would spend more than 5 minutes on fornits.
Out of the dozens of state and national advocacy organizations I have contacted, very few of them were even aware of the teen industry until after the hearing. And none of them had heard of fornits, or TTI survivors. Most were not aware of the large number of deaths, or that restraints are still being used. So that so-called "very large readership" is apparently NOT getting the message.
