Like most of us, I am definitely thinking of AARC and those who are in AARC on Christmas right now. While it's a solemn day in AARC knowing the rest of your friends and family are having a normal holiday, I'm glad to know that the kids in AARC right now are not in a Rap, and are most likely having a far easier day than most. Newcomers will have some supervised time with their parents at a dinner table, if the rules are still the same.
I was reading about helping cult members today, and how communication like we have on this board where we are straight forward in saying "You are in a cult, you are brainwashed, your leader is misleading you" only causes the cult member to become more defensive of their cult. I was interested this morning in asking the AARC staff who post on this board, what it is they think when they watch the film or trailer for "over the GW", but then I answered myself. They will not see the similarities and question what it is they do. They will become afraid and then pick out the very minor differences and feel justified that they are enough to make AARC different - it will fuel their belief that AARC is the one and only place to truly heal drug addicts. Isn't that what you believe guys? Name one other "treatment centre" for youth which you feel is equal to or better than AARC.
What I would like to do today though is plant a seed in your heads regarding the amount of jargon and negativity that is used in AARC. I am a strong believer in choosing words carefully, and speaking in a positive manner. I know that you believe that directing anger at Newcomers, or your stressing your disapproval in them helps them, and I know that you can't take a day off from doing that, but I could ask you to try and do this one thing: Tomorrow when back in Rap's again, try to go one entire day without using the following words:
Hurt'n
Pathetic
Bullshit
con
martyr
"pitty pot"
Druggie
weasel
Kiss Ass
struggl'n/struggle
Defect
"deadinsaneorinjail"
Insane/Insanity
Good Luck.

I can't believe I left out "sick"! I can't even imagine one Rap, nevermind an entire day in AARC without calling someone "sick".
For the next couple of days, what if you guys only used the word "sick" when someone actually has a cold, flue or cancer?

"You can't snow the snowman"
I guess that is AARC's Christmas version of "You can't con the conman"
I guess you can't, and they are the best!

from what I'm reading, aarc uses the same abusive languange that I heard at kids of bergen county eighteen years ago.
what a coincidence. vause starts a "new and revolutionary program", in alberta, but can't lose the same abusive language that's been used at these types of programs for the last thirty years.
If it smells like a turd, it is probably a turd.
I also want to express my condolensces to the drug war victims that had to spend their christmas in that shit hole. I did two christmasses and it was not exactly pleasant.
do they still do big chrismas murals in aarc?

opps, I forgot to ask, why do aarc supporters come to a site labbeled as aarc survivors. they realy should not have any contact with us and are breaking their programs by associating with people who are not supporters of their program.
start an aarc enthusiast site. I swear I will never post , cause I don't give a god damn about what a bunch of zombies think. come to think of it, I will never even go read the posts, cause I don't care what they think.
the truth marches forward, independant of the forces trying to opposse it
Lies, always need defended and explained away.

They are here to control damage to the program. 1 lost student is a windfall of lost revenue.
Every one student saved from the inhumanity of AARC is a huge victory for those of us who oppose them.
-
that was quick. I know why they post, I would like them to explain to me why they post. be like deer in the f'n headlights
I agree that we need to save any future victims. I have a protest in the works, currently, I've got me, my wife and my daughter, and one di
sgruntled host mom involved.. looking for more, are you interested?
pm me

Homeslice I'm the founder of the YLF. I'm always interested in protest. Even if I can't be there in person I'll be there in spirit.
Besides.. I'll be home in March. So feel free to plan more than one protest and I'll do my very best to come march with you all at least once this year.
Just so long as Rachel promises to keep me away from your good canadian beer.

I'm a graduate. Those are all commonly used terms in AARC.
-
Wow! Yet AARC claims to be a completely different program. How can it be different if it uses the same terminology with the same meaning?
I would like to hear from AARC supporters. Do you agree or disagree with this terminology being used at AARC?

start an aarc enthusiast site. .
Their are numerous groups on facebook for AARC enthusiasts. One is named in honour of this forum, complete with a disclaimer about how the group title is just in fun. What could be funnier than mocking people who have been physically and psychologically damaged by a cult?
Check out a group called FeelGoods. This group runs the whole gamut from ignorant brain-washed cult member to...ignorant brainwashed cult member.

There are others too, but they are private, you need to ask or be invited to join.
