When parents stop putting their kids in programs and when people come to grips with what's really going on behind closed doors.
Yes, the deaths are horrible and very sad. It's the worse of the worse, I can't even imagine what a parent and other family members go through when they lose a child. But imagine how horrible it must be for your child to die at the hands of someone you paid to care for them. Parents, please beware. There are really some very bad places out there.
And there are far more casualties than these and the other deaths that are not listed here. The casualties are the living - the kids who have to endure the program, the people who abuse them and mistreat them, and then life afterwards. They have a reality like none other.
Imagine adults being imprisoned without ever even getting a fair trial, never getting to talk to an attorney, it wouldn't fly. So why is it OK for parents to basically do the same to their children? The thing that really galls me is that many of these kids are not the druggies people envision, they are not brats, they are not bad kids. Many are normal kids with parents who have serious problems. These kids are thrown into a world of hell because their parents don't want to deal with them for whatever their reasons. It's truly sickening.
I just hope the world learns about these places before we lose more kids and before more kids lives are messed up in the name of treatment.
