The Wizard of Vause has never attended medical school nor written a dissertation for a Ph.D., yet he insists on being called "Doctor". The Wizard is not a psychologist, yet he has repeatedly referred to himself as one. What is the cause of this deception? Could it be true that the Wizard contracted a form of canine syphillis from V.M. Newton while apprenticing in child torture at Kids? Are spyroketes at this moment eating his brain? When asked if this is the source of his delusion, the Wizard replied, "That story is arf! Arf! Arf! Arf!"

Clinical Psychology Program Description
The goal of the Clinical Psychology Program at the University of Calgary is to prepare students for careers as doctoral level professionals in applied, academic and research settings. The training we offer is based on the scientist-practitioner model and provides students with an integration of academic knowledge, research skills, and clinical training and experience. This integration is achieved through formal course work, ongoing activity in faculty and self-directed research, and supervised clinical work in a variety of practica and internship settings. The program was granted full accreditation status for seven years by the Canadian Psychological Association in 2004.
Students are exposed to a core curriculum including research design and statistics, history and systems of psychology, ethics and professional standards, and breadth courses in the general domain of psychology. In addition to a breadth of knowledge within the general field of psychology, students will acquire:
training in the content areas and theoretical approaches specific to clinical psychology,
training in the techniques, procedures and ethics of assessment and intervention, and
the proficiency to execute and evaluate research.
Formal courses are complemented by community-based practicum training courses, summer clinical experiences, and advanced clinical practica (approximately 1,100 hours of experience), all of which take place during two years of study as a master's level student and two more years of full-time residency as a doctoral candidate. Students in the program will also complete a full-year (1,600 hours) predoctoral clinical internship. Training in this program is sensitive to diversity considerations.
Research training within the program consists of both a master's thesis and a doctoral dissertation, as well as other research activities with which the student may become involved. Research training is based upon an "apprenticeship" model in which students initially work closely with a faculty member in an area of mutual interest, gaining the knowledge and experience necessary to undertake self-directed independent research. It is expected that students will take graduate level statistics and research methods courses during their first two years of the program. During this time a master's thesis will also be completed. Based upon adequate performance, students will then normally proceed to doctoral level course work, candidacy examinations, doctoral level research, and a year-long predoctoral clinical psychology internship.
The following is an example of the list of courses which may be required:
Year 1

Students must take breadth courses in four areas, as stipulated by CPA and APA accreditation criteria.
Entrance Requirements
Entrance requirements for admission into the Clinical Psychology Graduate Program:
a four-year undergraduate honours degree in Psychology;
a minimum GPA of 3.6 over the last 20 half courses completed;
Graduate Record Examination (GRE) general test scores. The minimum criteria set is the 50th percentile in each the Verbal and Quantitative dimensions, although, applicants with scores less than the 60th percentile will not typically be admitted;
applicants whose background language is not English must take either the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) and achieve a score greater than 600 (written test) or 250 (computer-based test), or successfully complete Level III of the Learning English for Academic Purposes (LEAP) Program.
How about the Union Institute?
Program at a Glance
Learners admitted into the Ph.D. in Interdisciplinary Studies complete 65 credit hours of study beyond the master’s degree. The minimum time to complete the degree is three years (six terms). UI&U's doctoral program consists of the following components:
foundational interdisciplinary seminars related to Ethics and Social Justice, The Creative Process, and Engaging Differences
academic studies that include a core curriculum and advanced study within a primary and secondary area of concentration
praxis (connecting theory to practice) training and workshops
academic seminars in critical thinking and writing
study and research methods and humanistic approaches to inquiry
individualized study that is directly related to the learner's area of study, professional interests, and dissertation research (includes an optional internship)
dissertation research that, when completed, contributes new knowledge to the learner’s field of study.
Expectations of learners pursuing study in a selected area of concentration are to develop a program within a limited area of study aligned with the core values of UI&U and the Graduate College; achieve proficiency in general principles and approaches to doctoral inquiry; acquire both core and advanced knowledge; develop field/research proficiency; and conduct doctoral-level research by completing a dissertation that meets national standards for research at the doctoral level.
Criteria
The admissions criteria, in order of priority, are the following.
1) Intellectual/analytical ability and academic preparation as demonstrated through transcripts, letters of recommendation, application essay, and telephone interview.
2) Openness to and interest in doctoral research and advanced learning--or, stated differently, the absence of a dogmatic or closed or fixed point of view.
3) Reasonable fit within the three areas of concentration.
4) Related considerations such as a personal/professional schedule that makes it possible for an applicant to participate fully in the low-residency format, ability to work with others, and similar factors.

Well, they obviously don't even apply their own criteria to the people they admit, given that one of the most obvious things about Miller Newton is complete commitment to a particular point of view about addiction!!!!!
-
Don't be so close-minded. Unlike those know-it alls at the University of Calgary, Union doesn't require one of those boring undergraduate psychology degrees, not a Masters in Science, nor a pre-doctoral clinical internship.
-
It doesn't matter, it's all for show anyhow. Obviously anyone can run a prison/treatment center/mind control camp here in Canada without having to be accountable to anyone.

Well, no. There's accountability.
Find out who pays into Conservative party coffers, who their fundraisers are and you might find some links.
Start with Hansard, then go to the electoral office and look at where the MLA's concerned get their support. I'll bet that's where the accountability lies .

In perusing some of the articles published about AARC I have come across yet another example of Vause being described as a psychologist. AARC's website still maintains a page with a 1998 article from Report magazine in which this bald-faced lie can be found. ISACCorp has another Report article from 2001 in which the shame of Saskatchewan is described as a psychologist. Funny that two journalists in articles written three years apart made that same mistake about the Leader.

Yes, they are either being TOLD Vause is a psychologist, or they make that assumption based on the PhD. designation.
Either way Vause is NOT a psychologist.
Vause is NOT a psychologist
Vause is NOT a psychologist
Vause is NOT a psychologist!!!!
-
The fact of the matter is that the Wiz cannot be licensed as a psychologist because he does not have sufficient academic credentials. It is for this reason as well that AARC had to change it's name from Kids of the Canadian West. The Provincial Government could not endorse and directly fund a program run by an amateur. This is also why AARC has never had a license to run a treatment centre, and is not overseen, nor regulated by any regulatory body.
But, being a sociopath who had seen the adulation and power accrued by his mentor Miller Newton, the Wiz ran with it.
-
Well, this seems to have struck a nerve with AJAX and all the anti-AARC crowd and Ajax continues to avoid answering any questions. how reliable a crowd they are . . . . .
Although it is like herding cats to keep Ajax on point, I'll ask again:
1. what kind of education/training do you have ajax . . .. or have not ,what ever the case may be?
2. have you ever spoken with DVause in order to determine he is a "sociopath"?
-
Vause is not a psychologist. Observe that all psychologists licensed to practice in Alberta must be registered and pay dues to the Psychologists association of Alberta. Under Alberta legislation,they, like lawyers and medical doctors establish the criteria as a self governing body that entitle a person to call themselves and be recognised as a member of that PROFESSION. HE IS NOT A PSYCHOLOGIST!!!. Are you AARcolytes so thick that you do not understand this simple fact?

It doesnt even matter now. We are arguing with kids who are still in highschool or never finished. This guy is miles ahead of you. Go back to making fun of the kid making fries at mcdonalds and pretending you are better than him. This should at least make you fell better about yourself. Geeesh, what a waste of time.

Geesh, it doesn't matter that the Wizard has lied, for years, about being a psychologist. All that matters is who I am.

Incredibly handicapped thinking of AJAX, one of many to follow :
"The Wizard of Vause has never attended medical school nor written a dissertation for a Ph.D., "
his dissertation is four volumes in length?? Go to the UMI site and look it up
dear little-brain ajax, you are SUCH an incompetent when it comes to facts. Also, you obviously have no idea what doing a PhD dissertation entails as you haven't even done a bachelors degree.
So, let me give you a little bit of an idea
- when you do a bachelors degree at most universities, you do LOTS of courses with LOTS of students in them and write exams that mostly are composed of multiple-guess questions.
- when you do a masters you are a post-grad (meaning you have graduated from the minor leagues in university) and there are LESS students because they are the cream of the undergrad crop. Masters students do more independent study BECAUSE you don't need to have your hand held anymore. they take LESS courses than when they did their undergrad and they do some self-directed courses with a couple different profs.
- THEN AJAX, PAY ATTENTION since you missed this because you keep running down UNION and showing PhD program descriptions which, in your opinion don't have enough course work,
- when you do a PhD you do even LESS course work because you narrow the field of study down even more from a Masters degree and LESS people meet the criteria to do a PhD because they need to become an expert in their given area.
- VAUSE jumped all these hoops with honours. THEN he not only developed and described a model of adolescent treatment which he IMPLEMENTED WHILE doing the doctoral work. i.e demonstrated incredible resources and ability in the area while writing a four volume dissertation. Union only, and other universities only provide profs to oversee and test a PhD student on their work. THEY don't give them courses cuz the person has demonstrated the ability to learn an ENTIRE area on their own, propose a need for knowledge in an area through thorough study of the literature and then produce new knowledge i.e. in his case AARC model of treatment. NOW, you are going to assert that it is Kids etc. etc. because you have no idea how to read the literature or his dissertation.
Oh and by the way VAUSE has never described himself as a psychologist. Why the hell would he lower himself to a mere psychologist who has gotten generic training in an area – he wrote a bloody dissertation on the area!!! journalists have said he is a psychologist. HE is an EXPERT in Adolescent treatment and has a PhD to prove that . . . .but you can’t get your head around the ‘salient’ points just laid out for you here . . .

PHD - Piled higher and deeper?
In some academia you learn more & more about less and less until you know absolutely everything about nothing-- that's the sort of PHD Vause has -- it's meaningless
-
He went to the same "university" as Miller Newton. It's been proven a diploma mill. What more needs to be said? Who in their right mind would trust the welfare of their child to someone like that?????
-
Everyone is so obvious. I had a friend in college who was the only family member to get a degree above highschool and he endured endless ridicule from all his brothers and sisters, inlaws etc. with comments like.. “Oh, mr big shot”!! and “Remember Mr. jastin, he had a college degree and ended up leaving his wife”. “Yes, I think he was gay. College made him gay”.
People who are uneducated are very quick to cut down others who try to get ahead or better themselves. You are not the first ones to take a shot at these people and you wont be the last. Everyone who has a PhD has heard “Big shot Doctor” (from those who don’t value education). The ones screaming paper mill never had the satisfaction of achieving a degree themselves or they wouldn’t be saying that.

"PHD - Piled higher and deeper?

how original 'sigh' !!! spoken like a true waste of space(your tag suits) who struggled to get through grade 6.
"He went to the same "university" as Miller Newton. It's been proven a diploma mill. What more needs to be said? Who in their right mind would trust the welfare of their child to someone like that??"
AND who "proved" that - you???? in your lentil-sized brain..... seems there are many people who have entrusted "the welfare of their child to someone like that??" and can not thank him enough

Wow. The lengths you people will go to to perpetuate this fantasy of your beloved guru. Have you even bothered to check his "credentials" for yourself?? It's not that difficult. Miller Newton got his "degree" from the same place. All he basically did was submit a paper to the 'board', which contained people ON HIS OWN PAYROLL. Do you not see a conflict with that? If I was going to entrust the welfare of my child to a "Doctor", I'd damn well make sure he got his education from a respectable university. Not some diploma mill. But hey, if that's all you care about you kids, that's your business. Sad, but your business.
Same shit, different day. Anyone who dares criticize the great and powerful oz will quickly be determined to be either a "disgruntled client", a "druggie", or ....and this makes me literally LAUGH OUT LOUD...... jealous.

Dear Anney, do you get your information from a kellogs box, too?????
honey, look it up on UMI, if you know what that is - i doubt it. it will also list the professors from their respective primary universities i.e Rutgers, UBC etc. etc. who were on the panel for his defense and had to read the 4 volumes and either pass or fail the PhD candidate. . . . . a "paper" given to a "board" on his "payroll" - you people just crack me up!!!
:bs: ::poke::
yes, same shit , different cereal lover

okay, you are always asking other people for proof lets see what you got. You said:
"All he basically did was submit a paper to the 'board', which contained people ON HIS OWN PAYROLL."
Lets see the paper he sent to the board.

Anne Bonney is always criticizing everyone else, lets see if she can back up her own statements (she hasnt been able to yet, that’s why most of us ignore her). So, okay,Anne, Lets see the paper he submitted to the board with people from his own payroll or is this just more BS that you keep slinging around?
What we usually get is an attempt to change the topic or we don’t hear from her for a few days, my guess is the later.

The Union Graduate School Crowd
While clinical director at Straight Miller Newton got a PhD from Union Graduate School (AKA Union Institute) in Cincinnati. At the time Union was a non-accredited, alternative college. He did not have to attend classes or take tests. He did attend some seminars called colloquiums. Newton had to write a paper which was his project to demonstrate excellence or PDE. In 1981 he received a Doctor of Philosophy for his paper "The Organization and Implementation of Family Involvement in Adolescent Drug-Use Rehabilitation." Essentially this paper described the six new parent raps which he implemented at Straight. In 1993 Dr. Newton was an Adjunct Professor of Neuropsychology at Union where he taught colloquiums in Cincinnati (December 8 - 12) and in Boston (June 23 - 28 and July 6 - 10).
Sharon Wegscheider is a woman Newton met who was also attending Union. Newton had her visit Straight and give an independent evaluation of Straight.
Dr. Newton left Florida and Straight in 1983 on the heels of state investigations and civil suits to setup his own rendition of Straight in New Jersey he called Kids of Bergen County. Later he opened his own international chain of programs called Kids Centers of America. Two of these were Kids of Southern California and Kids of the Canadian West.
According to Case # 584418 filed 3-9-89 with the Superior Court of Santa Ana, California it was alleged that an official from Kids of Southern California claimed that he or she had also attended Union Graduate School.
In 1989 CBS' West 57th Street exposed Newton's abuse at KID's. It was then that Canadian authorities learned that they had been paying for psychiatric treatment for Canadian kids in Newton's New Jersey program though the kids had not been receiving this care. And so the Canadian government yanked its support to Newton's program in New Jersey and also withdrew its support to establish Kids of the Canadian West in Calgary. Canadian Dr. Dean Vause who trained under Newton in New Jersey took over the plan to establish a Kids-style program in Canada. When it was finally opened Vause called it the Alberta Adolescent Recovery Centre (AARC). It is is still in operation and there is a movement to open an AARC-style program in Van Couver.
Dean Vause received a degree in physical education and history from the University of Saskatchewan and later got a masters in educational psychology. In 1994 Vause got a PhD from Union in Educational Psychology. His project demonstrating excellence is titled: "The Alberta Adolescent Recovery Centre: A Treatment Centre for Chemical Dependent Youth and Their Families." In his Union PDE, Newton writes that Straight is "kids helping kids." Today Kids Helping Kids of Cincinnati is a Straight-legacy program running out of the old Straight - Cincinnati facility.
AARC's web page has this endorsement from Dr. Audrey Olsen Faulkner, MSW, Ph.D., ACSW, Social Work Professor with the Union Institute: My professional assessment is that the AARC is a model program, grounded in research on addictions and on adolescent development. And this endorsement from Dr. Robert McAndrews, Professor at the Union Institute: Now that I see the ‘hard’ evidence and follow your thorough analysis, as a critical reviewer I am convinced that your model and actual program is one worth replicating everywhere possible . . . Dr. Bonnie L. Kelly, Ph.D., a therapist in Pennsylvania has this to say on AARC's web page, The adolescents’ commitment to the program and the community’s support and involvement is commendable. [A Bonnie Louise Kelly received a PhD in Clinical Psychology in 1993 from Union, the year before Dr. Vause earned his. ed.]

so, AJAX
ignoring the fact you love to cut and paste stuff that does not address the fact their is more expertise in the clinical treatment of adolescents for substance abuse at AARC than any other facility in Canada and parts of the States AND it has a track record to PROVE that . . . . .what do you know about attending University?. . . . . . zippo! BECAUSE you have never attended and therfore do not have any idea how knowledge and exspertise in an area is created!
why should people keep explaining that to you? answer . . . . . ::) because you lack the capacity for learning
-
Expertise like that of the Wiz? The Wiz was a phys ed teacher, then a guidance counsellor, then an employee of Miller Newton's child torture cult, then the head of AARC. Where and when did he do clinical research into Adolescent Addiction? The answer: nowhere, and never.
In fact, while he claimed to be doing research, he was in fact running AARC. Now he claims that AARC was based on the research for his PDE for Union, even though AARC opened two years before he finished his PDE.
He is not licensed to work as a practioner of psychology, and he does not perform research. He did exactly what Miller Newton, his mentor at Kids did, which is to jump into adolescent treatment with no academic qualifications, no practical education in the area, and no license. He is a quack, and he is engaged, every day, in medical malpractise.
-
their (it's "there", not "their"..."their" is possessive) is more expertise in the clinical treatment of adolescents for substance abuse at AARC than any other facility in Canada and parts of the States AND it has a track record to PROVE that . . . .
I can't wait for you to source that nonsensical claim.

Where and when did he do clinical research into Adolescent Addiction?
ROFLMAO . . . . you CAN NOT be serious - he spent 5 years of study on "clinical research into Adolescent Addiction" and then wrote a 4 volume dissertation on it - ya complete moron. If you had gone to University you would understand the level of expertise that would give him. He also spent 5 years before that running adolescent addiction programs for kids in Saskatchewan in Kamsak and North Battleford. Get some information straight!
I am sooooo curious now, what DO you DO for a living - it can not require intellect

Ah geez thanks orly - you are just so kind, i didn't know that . . . idiot. and you missed some other spelling mistakes too . .but let's get bak to how no person on this site that trashes AARC can provide any evidence that AARC preforms and has demonstrated positive treatement outcomes for the majority of its clients.
The exceptions are the ones that like to make-up storeis of abuse and mind-control and other interesting BS because they like to blame everythin outside of them for their being unhappy little campers that prefer to continue to smoke dope and drink and run other people down that didn't continue to hold their hands long enough after treatment.
Incidentally - what was the chick's name that is crying rape 'I was raped while at AARC' and that didn't report it and who dated the same guy after treatment. I heard he dumped her - she was really innovative in trying to get back at him and blaming AARC for her inability to hang on to the guy.
And how was AARC suppose to deal with that - alot of the grievances against AARC by people like AJAX have to do with AARC's control over people and yet they expect AARC to be controlling their life after treatment. Funny how un-educasted morons can come up with BS claims against a treatment centre.
-

You're right. No person on this site can provide any evidence that AARC pREforms (I'll let that one go) and has demonstrated positive treatment outcomes for the majority of it's client. Jesus! Do you even know what you're saying?

But of course! Anyone who dares question the *great and powerful Wiz* MUST be a druggie. Gee. Where have we heard that before?

Oddly enough, honored guest has brought up another rape case from AARC to which I have never referred on this site. I have met that young lady too. I've met three women who were sexually assaulted while in AARC's care. The one honored guest referred to was brutally ssexually assaulted by a staffer. Another was raped in the centre, and my spouse was sexually assaulted by her male oldcomer after the Wiz entrusted her to the care of a teenaged AARC client due to a shortage of female host homes. It was more important that she be under the control of an AARColyte than that she be safe.

I really enjoy the anal-ness ajax. I won't bother corerecting my typos JUST to irritate you .
so why did your spouse date the so-called rapist after treatment?? Must have been brutal. I guess it was for him, cuz he dumped her.
I have sympathy for TRUE rape victims - not those that lie about it. In fact those that lie about it, which are the ones you are speaking of, truly piss me off because they make it all the worse for true rape victims to seek and get justice.
If those kind of rapes happened at AARC it would NEVER get past all the "snitching" that you speak of. BUt more realistically, the treatment population would be very contaminated and would not have the SUCCESS it has . . . aside from the people . . .I just described. There are LOTS (the majority) of examples of very bright healthy people LIKE "Natalie Oldcomer" that has a Master degree in clincial counselling. A degree you would likely be unable to see the value of since your education (which we still haven't heard about) tells us what is and is not credible.
"Wow. The absolute stupidity and blind ignorance of that statement is beyond words."
Oh do explain - you expect treatment outcome time frames to extend way beyond anything in the research literature - I would say that is based on absolute stupidity and blind ignorance beyond words!! but hey, this is all about Ajax putting his shit on everyone else. If you weren't so busy ranting and raving to anyone that will listen to about your wife's lies then you JUST might be able to see how ridiculous you are, hon.

It's alright. You're not the first un=educated soul to come out of AARC. Unfortunately, you won't be the last.

Don't be so naive. Are you serious?

The only credentials that are relevant are that of those who claim to be treating children.

What? Who do you think you're speaking to? ROFL!

My spouse did not date the young man who sexually abused her. This incident was not only reported, my spouse was placed on Zero Club after reporting it. The male oldcomer who committed this act later admitted in AARC while doing his steps. AARC's response was to force my spouse into signing a form stating that she had fabricated her story, and that of two other assaults by oldcomers in host homes. The young woman to whom you referred, who was raped by a staffer, is not my spouse. Natalie Oldcomer, by the way, allowed herself to be placed in an adolescent treatment centre when she was over twenty-one. That doesn't seem too healthy to me. By the way, as I have never referred to the rape by the staffer until you brought it up, how is it that you know about this episode?
-
he spent 5 years of study on "clinical research into Adolescent Addiction" and then wrote a 4 volume dissertation on it - ya complete moron.
Where?
Duh, while he was enrolled in the PhD program for 5 year. I know you never got that close to doing a PhD so you don't understand - you don't sit in a f** classroom anymore. you spend years working on you own being accountable to a committee who makes sure you are meeting the objectives of your PhD goals. so, in answer to you question - earth?
If you had gone to University you would understand the level of expertise that would give him.
Which campus did he *go* to?
see answer above - in your world he should have his toe on a university campus??? and that is because . . . . ?
He also spent 5 years before that running adolescent addiction programs for kids in Saskatchewan in Kamsak and North Battleford.
The names of the facilities and dates of service please.
For two separate high schools and one in Kamsak and the other in North Battleford - go see if he was on staff at those in the 80's ya idiot. there should only be one high school in Kamsak and one or two in North Battleford.
Get some information straight!
You made a punny.
Ya, and I mentioned that in another post cuz it was kinda a funny for all you little straight-lover people
I am sooooo curious now, what DO you DO for a living - it can not require intellect
What does that have to do with anything?
AS is consistently demonstarted in these threads - if Ajax or several others had any kind of university training they wouldn't expect or want to know such stupid things as above.
SO, yes knowing if someone has any university education at even a bare minimum has a lot to do with understanding why Ajax and others keep asserting such ridiculous things about what is required from a PhD program / university / whether or not someone sits "on campus" while they do their research for a PhD. That is about as stupid as insisting that they not be able to take books out of the library, they are only allowed to do "their research" while sitting in a library on a university campus otherwise 'it doesn't count'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Vasue while collecting books and articles from universities around the globe. He read it ALL and synthesized it into his work while implementing his model that happened to use methods like other well established and clinically sound treatment centres. If you want to know what these are refer to his dissertation - just be aware it is four volumes long and ANYONE can look it up because it is listed with the Masters and PhDs of all students world-wide who have been awarded a Masters or PhD from a credible university in North Amreica, Europe etc. etc.

Didn't go through AARC - not an addict also have more education than you have dearr, sorry i ddidn't spend as much typing in typing class like all the UN-educated treatment drop-outs standing behind Vincent

Nope, what is brutal is the lengths some very sick individuals will go to try and discredit others because they are so pathetic!!

And you know she's lying because....................
BECAUSE, there are credible witnesses who can attest to being on scene when she was allegible raped, hun. They know for a fact that it is made up and ridiculous but she sure is able to wind her sick husband up about it in an exponential kind of way LOL ::OMG::
If those kind of rapes happened at AARC it would NEVER get past all the "snitching" that you speak of.
Don't be so naive. Are you serious?
No, more like reasonable and have spoken to credible people and been around enough people who have gone through there to know that there is genuine gratitude and respect for the place and the people running it.

BAck to the best of the lost-for-words-statements again! what's new!

What? Who do you think you're speaking to? ROFL!
someone not worth anymore airtime, that is for sure! I notice Vincent can't reply cuz he is busy reviewing her lies, me things ROFLMFAO

You things? As far as my spouse, as I stated before, the young man who sexually abused her admitted to doing so in AARC when he was doing one of his steps. Her clinical from the period has also acknowledged this.

All of us know that things are said during steps that are not nesseccarily true and said due to pressure and exhaustion.

Yes we do. Until now, no supporter of AARC has been willing to admit that. Kids are virtually forced into making false statements about "their past". Their PAST...there is no pressure to make up bad shit about their time INSIDE the program. In fact, quite the opposite. Dissension of any kind is not tolerated.
If the "past" stories aren't awful enough, they're pressured into making shit up. Then those false statements are used against them as part of their "diagnosis". Their parents are told of these stories in order to reaffirm that the kid is bad, bad, bad and NEEDS to be at AARC.
Thanks for clearing that up.

Your welcome, it goes way beyond AARC too. Most kids are pressured into saying stuff they didnt do or to make them seem bigger than they are. If one kid says they drank a case of beer a day another may say they did too just to fit in.

your welcome, so honesty isnt a big part of the time there. If you cant trust the war stories then you cant trust any of it. We cant differentiate and say this is a true story this one is false. None of us can do that. All we know is that some of the stories are true and others are not.
-

you and she really need to get your stories straight and quit accusing other people about lying about what happened when you started the so-called lie! wow and no one else at AARC knew, i strongly doubt that. besides if it it did actually happen and was handled as you said with a clinical person - why weren't charges brought forward if everyone is being so up front about it AND/OR did she want the guy to cut a hand off besides making amends so she could erase the big V off her forehead?
-
Do you have a big V tatooed on your forehead? I knew that the Wiz ripped off Miller Newton, but I didn't know that the AARC followers were emulating the Manson family.
-
uhm . . no I don't go around whining about torture and abuse that never happend so don't need one, thanks.
Vinny, you know nothing of D. Vause. Anything you say here is based on your wife's resentments, nothin more and nothing less.
I cracks me up how you and others go on about Vause thinking Miller-Newton is a mentor to him. It was the farthest thing from it. But you of course think you know something different, which is NEVER the truth.
Vause's model is based on his PhD and if it emulates M-Newton's model it is because it emulates other similar models because these methods exist in the adolescent addiction treatment literature. THe only thing Vasue learned from Miller-Newton was that Miller-Newton was one sick man who tried to screw him over. Any of the AARC people that came from Kids can verify that - i.e Janne Holmgren
-
How telling that the Wiz's complaint about Newton is not that he abused children, but rather that he shafted the Wiz. As to ol' Janne, she knows better than to poke her head out of her foxhole right now.

oh excuse me, i didn't mention EVERYTHING for little Vinny. Geez, i think he noticed that and kinda is why he felt screwed over as well. he respected the guy until he went down there and really saw what was going on plus Miller-newton and his crew tried to really fuck him around when he tried to do something about it, vinny honey. you want the TRUE picture why don't you really do your homework, it might help. and doing you homework entails asking the source not your wife
. . . so janne h needs to keep her head in a foxhole . . and that would be because . . . . . vinny and his lunatic are on her as well? i have a feeling you two don't mean very much to her but please do tell. . . i love the belly laughs
-
After a year and a half of working in a child torture facility that was ripping off donors, parents, private insurance companies and US Medicaid, the Wiz tried to do something about it? Sandi Levy Barbero took four days to leave Kids, and write reports to State agencies. Janne is, as she has been since leaving Kids, free to do what her conscience tells her. I'm not sure why I would mean anything to her. Strange comment.
-

uhm . . not any stranger than that one
-
Maybe not. It's not Janne's fault that the Wiz put her in charge of his prisoners at All About Receiving Cash.

Interesting time period you pulled out of your magic hat of mistruths - 1.5 years, where did you ever get that from? never mind i realize you just embellish and make things up out of your world as you go / get fed stuff from Ms special. BTW, she never did come back and define the "torture" did she
-
Maybe not. It's not Janne's fault that the Wiz put her in charge of his prisoners at All About Receiving Cash.
and that fits into the discussion . . how?
you would have really struggled in any post secondary education. i am glad for you that you didn't drop any money trying
-
Why do you have any sentiment with regard to how I spend my money? Have you developed an internal relationship with me? By the way, it's a fact that the Wiz spent a year and a half working for criminal Miller Newton in a quack facility, as it is also true that Social Worker Sandi Levy Barbero spent four days in the same place and went to the authorities. Only the Wiz knows for sure why he stayed until KCW went rotten.
-
do't read too much into it, vin. you are twisted up enough. your mind seems to snatch at random things in such an odd way.you mustreally fuind that unsettling. maybe that's why you need to be obsessed with Vause and AARC . . .who knows but it is not going to lead to anything positive, ever! so enjoy what you can,
also, trying to make fun of me REALLY amuses me more
-
I never thought that the Wiz's year and a half working in a child torture facility that was funded by defrauding parents, charities and the government was a random thing.
