Kat has a life, why attack her? It makes no sense, unless you're some sort of a troll trying to stir up trouble on this forum. If so, just go away.
She's trying to find sense in all of this nonsense and is trying to help other girls. I don't see the harm in that. Isn't that what any good citizen should do? Come to the rescue of children who otherwise cannot help themselves? That's what this is all about. Children, yes, children. Under 18 are considered children.
Keep up your good works, Kat.

4 the record i wasnt attacking k, opposite actually. i was poking a bit of fun at what the person seemed to be implying that asked if k spent all her time on this site... far as i can tell, kat does little else but work.

weren't we all? heres what i dont understand.
it saved my life: this is what MMS told us and taught us to think. Without MMS we would DIE. We were on the path toward DEATH or JAIL- withouth a doubt 100%. But that likely stated the obvious and thats not the problem, what comes next is the problem FOLLOW EXACTLY WHAT WE SAY, WITHOUT QUESTION AND YOU WILL LIVE. No one knows this to be true or not, if you or i would have died, but if u read interviews of other schools that are WAY WORSE than MMS this is what the students say as well- and these kids really had some shit thrown there way. They say, well, it was bad, but it saved my life...as if the schools can't be wrong in what they did b/c you happen to be alive today.
Yes, you may still be alive and MMS can also be abusive all at the same time. Or they can have problems that make them mostly ineffective in what they do, selectively work, or can do more harm. And then you have depression before and after, because of MMS, because they are unskilled and unqualified and use methods that are questionable in their effectiveness (especially if someone is suicidal/depressed or otherwise mentally ill)
B/c you are alive doesn't meant that the school was just or ethical/treated us with dignity/respect, or that the staff really knew what they were doing, or that all that work we did for the school was not really abuse or that all the humiliation we endured was not abuse, or that the hours of excsercize was not abuse, or that the inability to be critical of the school and think for ourselves was not wrong or that the sadism of the staff was not abuse... i could go on.
it was not perfect: got that right.
