The truth about Darrington Academy

If you think he is still "out there" be sure to check with the homeless shelters and leave a message for him to call you.
Check with hospitals and do the same.
Even the jails.
Consider placing an add in the personals section of the news papers. He might notice it if he is trying to look for work or shelter.

Good luck.

I hope you find him first.

Our next step is to get any attorney.  As he is 16 1/2 they cannot refuse him an emancipation hearing.  We will be filing papers on his behalf.  It doesn't matter if he is in Georgia or Jamaica, they will have to produce him, unharmed  :exclaim:

That's an excellent idea. Even if it won't work, it would mean the world to him to know that there's someone on the outside fighting for his release.

I have researched quite a bit about laws regarding kids over the age of 16 and HE HAS A SAY in where he wants live and be.  Basically what it amounts to at this point is kidnapping, even if it was his parents that did it.  We encouraged him to go home to his parents and try and get along etc, he went with them without a fight,and then they tricked him into getting into the car, they put the child locks on and would not let him out, it took 3 goons to get him into Darrington.  This all information told to me by the family,  so it can't be denied.  All we have to do is get it before a judge and a judge has to hear him because of his age, it may take some time but it will happen.

I thought familes weren't supposed to divulge any information about their kids being in these places?  Our friends family just can't seem to stop calling.  I know it is to try and upset us over what has happened, it just eats away at them that I don't give the reaction they are looking for!  - Oh well Darrington Academy, you have some people that just can't seem to comply just so they can try and gloat :grin:

Ah, the old "stating my experience"---the wonderful Program-speak for, "I'm going to throw around a bunch of insults and allegations now and I want you to *thank* me instead of telling me to fucking go to hell."

Go to hell, asshole.

"Stating my experience" my ass.

I swear if I hear that mealy-mouthed crap one more time I'm going to scream.

I try to generally be reasonable with people.  I don't always succeed, but I try.

But I have no patience at all with people who are total insulting bastards to other people and then try to hide behind a stupid bit of jargon to be rude and obnoxious and not expect others to respond to their rudeness in kind.

You're rude, you prick, and you deserve for people to be as nasty as you are right back at you.

"My experience."  

Grow the hell up.  Part of *my* growing up is that I don't tend to let people get by with that crap without hearing exactly what I think of it, and them.

Sorry to everyone *other* than the asshole for my outburst, but that "my experience" crap the program advocates throw around has gotten on my last nerve.

I can't help but wonder of all of you that are against this place...have any of you actually been there...talked with any of the staff...or checked with the county to see if any reports have been made??  I just wonder how much you really know about this place since you all have such strong opinions.

Ever been to Cuba? Neither have I. But I know a lot of people who have been there and who risked life and limb and sacrificed much to get out.

Now, you could opine that there's nothing at all wrong w/ life in Cuba. But I just dare you to try and make the case in downtown Miami.

Same here. No, neither you nor I have ever been through a WWASP program. And yet we have a good deal of information about what goes on in them, who runs them, their histories and reems and volumes of formal and informal complaints about them.

If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.

I've heard enough people who have personally encountered Dace Goulding to know I don't want him in my home state.

Since it just started in November, Darrington, as far as I'm concerned, is just another "move the facility, change the name, keep the Program the same, and hire the same old people to run it" example of the Program's strategy for decades.

Casa got shut down, Dace had to go somewhere, so he came here.  We don't want him.

Well, I take that back.  I would have no problem with Dace living in my community as an auto-mechanic, a plumber, a computer programmer, an engineer, or any job that does *not* involve teen residential care or patient/client care involving any relationship of trust.

Darrington's *own contract* says that they ship kids to Tranquility Bay in Jamaica---and we all know what *that* place is like---if they don't toe the line in Blue Ridge, Georgia.

Nice try.

These places move to new towns when they shut down, and change the names and reopen, precisely to get away from the track records they had in the *old* towns.

Didn't work.  Dace Goulding's bad reputation follows him.  WWASPS bad reputation follows it.
