i believe gary was 'licensed', it didn't stop things from getting WAY out of hand- esp b/c everyone knows John calls the shots. come on now. MMS is his baby.
we absolutely need regulation for these reasons. They should be oligated to have to report abuse that happens within the facility to the proper authorities and fined if they do not. its bullshit that they created a comittee to self-regulate in MT.
btw betsy, i don't think anyone is saying any of these things are fact- you keep telling people to get their fact straights- that's what the forum is for, no? i see it as more like people are seeking out info and attempting to open up dialogue.
Also, i need to comment on a point you made that insunuated that girls who attended an MMS reunion are somehow more forthcoming about their issues, 'healthier' if you will. I have to say, respectfully, that's the most absurd thing i've ever heard. how on earth does that determination make sense? Especially if girls felt MMS was harmful to their health, wouldn't it seem quite the opposite of healthy to subject themselves to the same environment which they feel wronged them.
I'm afraid I would never feel comfortab;e reutrning to the school. I feel like a was a guinnea pig for a business/bad therapy experiment, ahem, innovation...lol some nightmare which i would rather seek to change not...have a reunion over.
