You can be assured that nobody here talking this bullshit and acting like 12 year olds cursing you boys out is being sent by Dr. B. These are probably other students or former staff and have nothing to do with Dr. B himself. Or, quite possibly, one of your own.

1. Food is not rationed.
2. If you consider raking leaves, pulling weeds, and chopping wood physical labor then, yes, HLA has physical labor. My father called it hard work and he gave me more of it when I misbehaved. If a parent reading this cannot handle their child doing some hard work as a consequence, then they should not enroll their child at HLA.
3. Anyone can report greivances to Child Protective Services if they have a problem with something.

1. Food IS rationed. That's a well-established fact. I've personally seen it done. They call it "restrictions" diet.
2. Physical labor is used as punishment. I've personally witnessed kids doing meaningless, back-breaking manual labor, like moving rockpiles (then moving them back). You admit in your post that HLA uses labor as punishment. That is illegal, no matter what the circumstances. Thank you for clearing up the fact that they are knowingly and willingly commiting crimes against these children.
3. There is no state representative available for grievences although it is REQUIRED by law under their business classification and accreditation. I think it has been made abundantly clear what happens when a patient expresses dissatisfaction: they are ignored and/or punished.
4. NO patient is allowed to report to CPS because they are denied any means to communicate abuse. There is no phone available (as required by law) and all mail is censored (in violation of constitutional rights). They cannot even report abuse to their therapists, as their communications from their sessions are, in violation of confidentiality law, shared with the management for discipline purposes.
5. The poster who made up this little "lie list" is so full of shit that their eyes are brown.
Why do you people come on here and continue to prevaricate when there are quite literally hundreds of people who can attest to the fact that what you are posting is completely untrue?
Deny, digress, dissemble. That's all you folks are capable of doing. You'll say and do anything to protect your revenue stream even when it is shown beyond doubt to be false.

Surely, you're not implying that restriction kids only rake leaves, pull weeds, and chop wood are you. BTW, who benefits from the wood they chop?
Are parents told that their child will be moving rocks, cleaning dumpsters with toothbrushes, hauling gravel, digging steps, etc.
That sounds like labor that 'substitutes for paid employees', and if they were licensed it wouldn't be going on, unless they wanted to risk being in violation of state law.

9. Corporal punishment.*
(c) Children shall not be held solely responsible for the accomplishments of any work
activity of the institution such as food preparation, laundering, housekeeping, or facility
maintenance. Children shall not be considered substitutes for employed staff.*
What kind of association do the kids make with any potentially useful work they are required to do and the woods while at RC, because they are used as punishment?
Kids shouldn't be punished with consequences that are not related to the offense. That's not good parenting or the proper use of BM, if you want to get technical. In fact, it goes into the torture realm. Just cause daddy did it, don't make it right.
And yeh, parents should know how their kids will be 'parented' while in the care of strangers. Gotta ask the hard questions because the specifics aren't spelled out in the parent manual.

Poor people in the local community who still heat their houses with wood burning stoves. The kids deliver it to them.
Also, the students benefit from it by having fires in the lodge.
Staff are not allowed to use it.
