This quote?"


I thought it was from a different post, but ok, on this one I am talking to those that insult. What is the big deal. Ok, it is not the whole forum, nor all that intended these schools, but I am addressing directly the people who are posting insults rather than meaningful content.

I would be interested in seeing the link to this quote, and the dialogue that created it. I am not sure if this is a content or comprehension problem.

It is a comprehension problem here, not a content problem.

No shit, no exageration here. Some people did get sent to the Program simply for complaining. But we're not helpless children anymore. If you ever happen to meet a program vet in person I recomend you do NOT suggest that they did the necessary things to get themselves in the Program. Especially not in just those terms.

Ginger, I do appreciate this post.

I do think if someone is hell bent on insulting another person, that eventually that person may say something back. Should they be inclined to handle the response? Or lash out even more?

Regarding my laughing reading the posts, I should be clear, I was laughing aboue the discussion of reading the post, or not. It was funny, what can I say. Check it out yourself and tell me if it isn't funny.

Do you think maybe you've done something to provoke these responses?

That is why I think it is important, as an advocate, to suggest the knowledgable veterans of thes horrible experiences organize and get those stickers mandated on the phones at each school, so that the kids can call out and complain to the advocacy groups.

Further advocacy could be done, I suppose, for children in regular schools or homeschooling who are threatened with behavioral modification for complaining - to teach them how to complain and protect themselves. I am out of my sphere of experience at this point, so that is all I can suggest.

I would hope it never happens to anyone else in the future. How can it be prevented, is my question?

Yes.

For instance if I mention voluntary to you, it is a sure way to get a nasty response.

If I mention getting accurate information on mental health issues, of each type of treatment, of any kind, I piss off a bunch of other people.

If I mention mental health advocacy, a whole bunch more get mad ...

Hence the signiture ..

my crimes that landed me in straight were smoking a little grass and making C's in school.   I guess I deserved my 15 month enturnment at straight.  Did I complain?  Hell yeah I complained; every fucking day until I was a broken 17 year old.   After awhile, I had enough and played the game...

Bummer, seriously.

Please don't take my suggestions for advocacy to protect those in the future as an insult. It is what I do, so it is a natural for me to recommend it.

Yep, from the moment of intake it's check your dignity at the door and then don't even think about getting outta here until you learn to LOVE THE PROGRAM (e.g. The Seed, Straight, CEDU, WWASPS) etc.

I don't think Paul gets it ... that kids are robbed of their dignity and their childhood whether they are/were forced into an anti-drug program or being force fed street drugs like Ritalin or Adderall by order of their parents, teachers or the courts.
