I don't know what you are talking about! I went to MBA and am tired of all this BS about it. It's a great school, and helps tons of people. I still talk to at least 30 people from MBA 3 years after graduating, and we are all grateful for the help we recieved there. I would like to know who this teacher is, because all of my teachers there were amazing, and in support of the program. Yeah we complained about work projects and stuff, but we're teenagers, we complain about lots of stuff. It's not like we wouldn't have to shovel snow at home!

Sounds like sour grapes to me. All the kids know they can walk away from MBA at 18 so you apparently aren't telling the WHOLE truth about why you left the school. My child graduated from MBA and yes, the academics leave alot to be desired. Luckily, my child is bright and will do well in college. What she was there for, however, was the emotional growth program and she reaped many benefits from the Lifesteps you obviously don't see value in and the level of responsibility she was held to (YES, she did work projects and I knew about them!). The (tor?)mentors are knowledgeable and loving and develop great, respectful relationships with the kids. People who don't know should check out the school, check out a graduation, and after that they would find that your story does not hold any water.
If I wanted to send my kid to a top-knotch college prep school, I would have, but what I got back from MBA was my child, a little less educated than she could have been, but well equipped to negotiate life for the next 60 or 70 years and not just for 4 years of college.
Sounds to me like you, unfortuantely, fancied yourself too much of an advocate for the kid rather than doing your job and teaching to the best of your ability and holding them accountable.
MBA is an outstanding choice FOR THE RIGHT KID and it is up to each parent to decide if it is right for them.

I'm sorry it didn't work for you but it has worked for lots of kids and I know several. Keep up with the therapy as I can see you really need to continue with it. If shutting down MBA is all that will let you live your life then I want you to find new meaning in life. I hope the best for you but I want MBA to keep on helping kids like they helped my out of control kid who is doing great and loves to keep in contact with several of her mentors from MBA.

The anon already has a therapist, anon program parent. Your comments are out of line. What is it with parents who warehouse their kids? They feel like they have a license to counsel and dx.
