Happy to see you are out and doing well Alex.
I have been reading this site from the beginning.
I understand why a lot of people here are on Ashley and Leslie's side. With them being on our side saving Alex someone that was where we were years ago. What we would have loved to happen to us. I have spent years in therapy. I have learned I believe a lot here and there. My parents went through a lot of emotions and therapy also. They were never sure with any choice they made in my life was the right choice with me or any of us kids was right or not. In some ways they wish they never would have sent me and in some I think they still believe it is what they had to do at the time. I am ok with that now. We all agree now that place should be there but these place need to be closed and schools should be regulated and these seminars should be changed to focus more on self help. I did need a wake up call. For sure. But these parents that put these 12 year olds and kids that sit there for years I am not getting started.. I was luckier then a lot of you. I was only there a short time. It is easy for us to say don't send your kid there we have been there. Sounds like His parents are trying I believe Ashley or her mom said they are going to Therapy with Alex. There is a lot we don't see that goes on behind the seen's we forget about. We should try to be far. Good luck to all
God Bless

Unfortunately the bridge incident is true. He told us himself, and so did the escort. The vadalism was quite obviously someone else considering Ashley worked that night and then was home with her mother and father all night. Granted the dealer worked with Ashley, but Alex met him all on his own.

I have a question. Did you actually speak with the escort service or did you hear this from your daughter?"

Yes, his name was Russ, from 2nd Chance Transport Service.

World Wide Association of Specialty Programs and Schools (WWASPS) / WWASPS school on Dr. Phil,

Dr. Phil questions the method Hilary and Robert used to coax Shannon into attending a behavioral school. "You were going to go on vacation. You said, 'We can't leave her with a nanny,' so you told her you were taking her on vacation. You took her instead to a school that was for really problem, hard-case kids and drugs. You dropped her at the school where they had a rule that you can't talk to her personally or see her for a year."
"We wrote to her every week," Robert makes clear.
"No, there were times when you didn't even write to me," Shannon shoots back.
Dr. Phil wants to get the facts straight. "You didn't talk to her for a year. You didn't touch her, you didn't hug her," he points out.
"Yes, it was the hardest thing I ever did. It was harder than watching my wife, their mother, die in front me," Robert divulges. "I felt like I was driving her to her execution, but I knew it had to be done."
Dr. Phil shakes his head. "I have to tell you, if I take my child somewhere for whatever reason, and somebody tells me, 'You don't see her until she does A, B, and C,' and that turns out to be a year, that's not OK," he admonishes.

World Wide Association of Specialty Programs and Schools (WWASPS) / So sad....
« on: April 10, 2006, 01:00:00 PM »
Maybe she thought if she went up the mountain she would get a cell signal? Wonder if she had the phone with her.
When she was gone for a long time he went looking for her. Wow I don't even want to think any further. Maybe he found her dead and was trying to get back to the vehicle seeing he was found so close.
How sad.
When I was there someone brought a cell phone in but there was no signal.

Not really there is a lot of roads that should be closed this time of the year. With 15 feet of snow there is a lot of roads in the mountains it is easy to take the wrong ones and sliding off the road it could be hard to find them. Plus SCL would be loosing money.
The family and other families that attend the school were there looking also not only SCL employee's.

As stated in this article, funeral arrangements are being handled by
Ranfranz & Vine Funeral Homes
5421 Royal Place NW
Rochester, MN 55901
The date has not been set, but may be Saturday.
Family of Niki Thomas
552 21st St. NE
Rochester, MN 55906
The Rochester Post-Bulletin April 4, 2006
A Rochester woman and her son, missing for nearly a week in Montana, were
found dead late Monday afternoon near their rental vehicle. The suspected
cause of death is hypothermia.
It appears the pair tried to walk for help after their rental vehicle became
stuck on a snow-clogged mountain pass.
"We know they left the vehicle and were not far from the vehicle," said
George Zahhos, the father of Niki Thomas, 51, and grandfather of Nicholas,
15. "We're still in shock and trying to get more information, but at least
we know they were not alone. They were together."
An autopsy is expected to be performed to pinpoint the cause of death.
Funeral services are pending; arrangements are being made through Ranfranz
and Vine Funeral Homes.
Niki and Nicholas Thomas were found near Superior, Mont., in Mineral County.
Niki Thomas, a paraprofessional in the library at Mayo High School, had
traveled to Thompson Falls, Mont., last week during spring break to visit
her youngest son, who was attending Spring Creek Lodge Academy, a western
Montana boarding school. It was a surprise visit and one paid for by Niki's
family, as a birthday present.
The last time anyone heard from the two was last Tuesday as they were
returning to the school from a dentist appointment for Nicholas in Missoula,
about a two-hour trip.
At some point, they took a side road and became stuck in deep snow. Zahhos
said he was told the rental vehicle was out of gas, perhaps indicating they
had run it to stay warm. It was uncertain how long the mother and son had
been dead.
