It is, in fact, unthinkable.
Nerds are too smart for this shit.

One former detainee has informed me that the good children (Those who buys into the program for real) are driven down to Copper Canyon to the seminars.
So in a way they dont have lifesteps seminars at Aspen Ranch. It is not a lock down facility. Some detainees has managed to escape even though it is placed very remote.
Such seminars which could by nature be abusive has to be held in an environment where no strangers can look in and it is hard for the participants to leave. Copper Canyon is properly more like a prison than Aspen is.
It is very difficult for me to find anything written down about the lifestep - program. I would like to have something about on a pdf. Then I could create a stub (sub-page) from the involved facilities.

Any school, and she's picking schools without program input.
I note the Wikipeia stuff got nuked. "consider the source" obviously applies.
Our daughter is at the top level of the program and has never been to Copper - that sorta blows that bullshit out of the water.
The whole mind-control "Tactics" post was a total laugher.
I love watching the clueless continue to babble about nothing.
In the meantime, our daughter has a summer job for two weeks when she comes home, another mentoring kids in the fall, a learner's permit, a near 4.0, high SAT's (yes, taken at the Ranch), a pile of college acceptance letters from known schools, a new horse (the only downside expense-wise when she comes home!) and most importantly, her life back. She LOOKS like a teenager again, with a healthy glow and sparkle in her eyes.
We've spent many, many days and evenings at the Ranch, as have other parents...and we all get a giggle out of the posts here. Unfortunately, someone whose child needs help will read them and be persuaded that AR is a bad place. That's sad, because you folks have not a single friggin' clue what you are talking about. Sorry - you're all simply wrong. Spread all the propaganda you want - the conditions, control measures and manipulation you spout off about do not exist.
But at least you all have a hobby...I guess you're all your own support group. Who brings the acid to the meetings?
:P
