I highly HIGHLY recommend Carlbrook for kids ages 15-18 who just seem lost in the world. Either they have been hurting themselves, have no social decency, don't listen to their parents, or just don't seem to be happy with anything that is given to them.
Sounds like they spent 19 months training a marketing associate.
OK now it has gone from offending something that I hold very dear to me, to personally offending me! Am I the only one that sees a problem with this?? You don't know me and to say that I was "trained" to market Carlbrook is just FUCKED UP. Look at your motivations for posting what you say because you have a very skewed way of looking at the world.
To avoid confusion the following posts are mine.
If you don't like what's being said here, no one is making you stay. It's pretty rude to come onto someone else's message board and start telling them what they can and can't talk about.
AND STOP YELLING AT US!!!!!!
This guy has......

So you're saying that Mr. Moreno benefitted from the type of "treatment" and "therapy" that is described by Kiwifella? You're an 'end justifies the means' kinda guy, I take it.
The connections between all these places is just plain creepy. One gets shut down, another with the same staff opens up in its place. Same thing happened with Straight. They're just learing how to dress it up and make it look nicer, but it's virtually the same shit that was going on 20 years ago.

Carlbrook Grad, is this anything like what you experienced in Carlbrook?

Well, I'm sorry you find it offensive. They posted on a public message board. Am I not allowed to respond and ask questions? Have you ever been on a message board before? That's how they work ya know.
I care because I care about teenagers in general and am concerned about this bogus and dangerous industry. I've been on this board for quite a few years now and I take personal offense to people coming here and telling me what to do or say.
I've thought twice and three and four and five times about what I say. I'm the parent of two grown kids and I went through a teen program when I was a teenager. I'm not just talking out of my ass here darlin'. Yes, these are my opinions, just as what you say is your opinion. You believe it helped you, others believe it's dangerous. Again, that's the whole point of a message board....to discuss issues. If you're not interested in discussing them, why are you here? You can't expect to come on here and say "Carlbrook's great, it saved my life" and no one to question or respond to you.
