"DJ claims to be a "mental health professional", which is very frightening. I see some real OCD going on with him. He is obsessed with bringing down Hidden Lake, which shockingly has NOT shut its doors, despite all his predictions of its demise.
He claims to be an adult, yet he posts on the most vile, childish threads on this forum and takes great pleasure in attacking others. BUT-if you should dare to attack him or point out what a moron he is, it is an "ad hominem attack". That's his favorite big word."

"Do you honestly think DJ has a real job? If he does, he can't be all that effective when he posts on Fornits day and night. Thank goodness he's not in private practice, he's way too cynical and arrogant."

""I am guessing you probably had all your kids in boarding school... am I wrong? You are the ultimate control freak parent, sucks for your kids."
This may be one of the stupider things you have said, which is really saying something. A control-freak parent would NEVER send their kids to a "regular" boarding school. Your kid has tons of freedom there and the parent gives up almost all control (except financial). Boarding school is an awesome experience and offers educational, social and extra-curricular options that are fantastic for the kids. In this day and age, kids at boarding schools are there by their own choice, not because the parents are trying to get rid of them. Therapeutic schools are entirely different.
DJ-you really are a disgrace to whatever profession you purport to be part of. To make fun of Tourette's is inexcusable."

"My kid didn't choose it. He fought it kicking and screaming all the way. He now agrees there was no other option. He had already been kicked out of regular boarding school. It wasn't summer camp- there were lots of rules and restrictions. That's the way things have to be at a place filled with kids who have defied authority to the point where they can no longer live in their homes or communities. These kids lost the right to have internet access, cell phones, cars and girlfriends/boyfriends. They had abused enough privileges that they landed in wilderness and then Carlbrook. He's been out a couple of years now and moved on with his life. He still has many close friends from Carlbrook. Sorry-he doesn't hate us for sending him. He knows he got himself there and he earned his way out. "
