Treatment Abuse, Behavior Modification, Thought Reform > Brat Camp
What critics say
Deborah:
***BTW any therapist that thinks their clients are brats are in the wrong profession. Shame on you for working in a place like this!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, when the staff (Glacier) referred to some of the kids as 'punks' and 'brats', I wondered how many people would appreciate their therapist- the person who is supposed to understand that distressed people act in socially inappropriate ways- judging them with a derogatory label. How could you possibly 'help' anyone that you felt so much disdain for?
I also wondered how many thousands of people were watching who would now believe that they knew all there is to know about wilderness and begin to sell the program to any desperate parent who crossed their path.
The war on teens is disgusting and pathetic.

How stupid were those psudo-names. Even the therapists didn't give their real name. Not a very trusting environment when someone won't even tell you there name. I agree, staff have wised up and finally figured out they might run into us one day, and we DO grow up! :skull:

This is the best post in this category. The tough love approach has gone out of control in the hands of power trippers like these sadistic hippy wanna bes. I'm the type who feels that kids need discipline but these camps go waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay beyond that. There's discipline, then there's psychological torture.
