I am a parent of a kid who attended another program similar to HLA. I can also vouch for the many staff members who cared very deeply for the kids.
I know all the anti-program zealots on this forum can't stand to hear that there was caring and nurturing going on. The lessons weren't easy- the reason small things had consequences were so that these lessons could be taught in a safe and loving environment. I think The Marine would agree that in order to really understand how these programs work (no, not by brainwashing or harsh punishments) you need to understand how each level builds on the previous one. It is all about learning self-respect, honor and self-control.
Unfortunately, many kids slip back once they are out in the world. There is a high incidence of failure after programs. There is also a large recurrence of cancer after treatment. Does this mean the treatment is a waste of time? Of course not. You take your best shot, and places like HLA offer families that best shot.
