Who, mind your own business. Nobody here cares what you think or what you say. You probably should know that by now.

As far as accreditation is concerned HLA uses SACS because they have the inside skinny. Len's people work for SACS and rubber stamp whatever shithole he is currently pimping. SACS is weak and ineffective and breaks their own rules regularly for Len. Len is corrupt and seeks out SACS because he knows he can get what he wants due to their corruption. It reflects poorly on both Len and SACS and whatever school gets the B.S. accreditation. The ones who get hurt, as usual, are the kids.

What I do know is that you would like to control the thoughts and speech here so that only your own opinions are expressed. Trying to intimidate people into thinking the way you do or suppress peoples thoughts or censure people isnt going to work on this forum. People should be able to express their opinions openly, even yours.
I thought that was one of the things everyone here is fighting for.

Come on, man. You're not fighting for anything. Give it a rest. You wouldn't know what a fight was, silver spoon. I read somewhere that you dodged the draft, too. Not much of a fighter I guess.

And I do agree with the previous poster. The only person who cares about what you think or say is you. That's it. Back to the garbage depot with you!

So you attack people personally because of their opinion and rely on hearsay to load on more attacks. How could anyone know if another person avoided the draft or not if they dont even know them? and how does that relate to accreditation of HLA? You should be smarter than that DJ especially coming from someone who proclaims himself to be in the mental health profession. Why not support what you believe to be true by staying on the topic at hand and focusing on a healthy debate instead of resorting to derailing yet another thread with personal attacks because you disagree with me or lack a valid argument?

We were talking about SACS and HLA prior to the derailment if you are interested in contributing. Jill had indicated that the SACS agency was useless and in bed with HLA thereby rendering their accreditation worthless... my argument was whether that is HLA's fault or SACS?

Another way to look at it is if you had a local Department of motor Vehicles which was not properly testing our drivers prior to licensing them. The crime would be on the DMV not the drivers. The ones that got their license under those people may be good drivers or they may be bad drivers. We wouldn’t know unless they were retested under the proper procedures.

...lack a valid argument...

This describes every one of your "arguments." Why wonder why nobody wants to have a "dialog" with you? The reason is because you never make a valid argu,ment and that wears thin after a few weeks. You've been an "invalid" here for over five years, bro. Nobody wants to hear your stupid "people are like cars" nonsense anymore. This is why you get short shrift.

One option is to just skip over my posts instead of derailing the thread with your personal opinions and attacks on other people. If I took the time to comment on everyone that I disagreed with or thought their ideas were useless my post count would be way over 50,000. Use a little restraint and just accept that there are going to be some people that you will never agree with and just dont listen to them... it works for me.

Would be? It is. I wonder why you can't take your own advice and just "skip over" my posts? See, douchebag, you do all the things you tell others not to do. These mixed messages and "Do as I say not as I do" is likely what fucked up your kids and this is why nobody here takes you seriously.

Pleeease, take it to another thread and quit trolling this one.

Robert - This thread is really important..please ignore the jackass.

Being a little self depreciating today John? Eh, that's alright, its good to see you can acknowledge the fact that you are a jackass.

Now onto something that matters being discussed with someone who is capable of rationale thought.

Looking at the RC website I thought this was an interesting point on their FAQ's:

Quote

Is RIDGE CREEK licensed or accredited?
RIDGE CREEK is licensed with the State of Georgia Department of Human Resources as an
outdoor therapeutic camp.

That licensure is a little suspect to say the least, but they're ignoring part of their own question. Licensed or accredidted, like it's a choice between the two? Shouldnt both be done without question. It's a little more then the choice between paper or plastic.

So then the question remains, are they accredidted at all, and is anything but the x-ray machine actually licensed?

RB, why do you have to continue to hijack the discussion with your own personal vendetta? Please take it to the depot to started. Like I said this is important.

Yes, John, we all know that, hence why it would be best if you not muck up the conversation. You've got your own litter box just for that. Go have fun for awhile, I'll come see you when I'm wanting some comic relief.

Again focusing on real issues. Reading over the website I found these other nuggets I thought to be very interesting:

Quote

Every student is strip-searched for the safety
of the program (body cavity searches are not conducted).

Quote

RIDGE CREEK does not believe in depriving students of meals. We recognize that food
deprivation could lead to serious injury or illness and that diet and nutrition are important for
maintaining health. Therefore, we feed our students three meals, and two snacks a day. Your
child will eat a combination of hot and cold meals that constitute a nutritionally balanced diet of
approximately 3,000-5,000 calories per day

On the one hand they suddenly feel like being honest, and on the other they're criticizing their own record without acknowleding it. I guess fornits has an effect afterall.

Doesn't make sense to FAX to Human Resource Director that is no longer there.

I wouldn’t worry about the faxes getting through to the right person, this is fairly standard. They will continue to utilize the same fax number and someone will collect the faxes and send them to whoever is doing the hiring for the position. The cover letters and resumes will get to the right person. The letters should still be addressed to the "Human Resource Director" as the person doing the hiring will also being wearing this hat (albeit even if it is temporary).

I am not, John, RB. Please take your personal attacks elsewhere?
