No I did not experience anything like that.  I came to work for thayer because honestly I wanted to try and make a difference.

I had been working with teens for quite a few years.  While in High School there was a progam I was a councelor for that would help teens stay away from drugs and other things.  We would teach the teens how to work with each other and how to get a long with each other.

I am not going to continue going back and forth with you guys.  I have told you how I did things at thayer.  If there were other Drill Sergeants that did things diffently I did not see it or I wasn't there when it happened.  When I ran my shift I tried to do the best I could.

I truly do wish that all the employees would go through a tougher hiring process so we could avoid a lot of these problems.

Nihilanthic:
Is there a reason I STILL dont have a clear answer why mind-numbing forced exercise and humiliation is going to help a kid at all?

How the fuck does it have ANYTHING to do with "staying away from drugs and other things"?


The fact is the fact, the program is evil, and every attempt to make
chicken salad out of chicken shit has resulted in a Chicken shit
sandwich, No pickle on the side could ever change that.

BINGO!

niles, i believe the sargeant was giving his honest recount, and many of us happen to agree with him. Your statements are often grossly over exacturated. So much so, that most ignore your comments, and you would argue with a brick wall anyway.

He still never answered my qestion, and neither have you.

NOBODY has explained how forced exericise and humiliation is helpful for 'troubled teens' except simply declaring that it is themselves! It also doesnt matter how I phrase it, the facts are still the facts.

Also, considering the way drill seargants talk to people in bootcamps... what the fuck does how I say anything have anything to do with it when THEY insult and humiliate children while they exercise themselves to exhaustion and then say its good for them?

Oh, and youre right, I am arguing with a brick wall.  :roll:

because the cadet is no longer "in charge", and will earn respect.  Niles, you go on like your a mutant ninja turtle and all, but you'd most likely fail your first day of any bootcamp, because your mouth would get the best of you, and sir you definitely have a problem with that. As well it did with many of these cadets. Not much different than the military. And before you answer again, these teens are near adulthood, and being accountable for their own actions through choices they make.  Your the histerical, over-dramitic one, as clearly shown in each comment you make.
