Anon, wouldn't someone like Three Springs, who worked at two facilities as a licensed therapist be considered an "expert?"
I read his "Making of a Monster" and although I certainly don't agree with restraining children, or with the rock rolling incident---I don't consider any of Three Springs's self-reporting to be criminal behavior. Nor, did his employer, it appears.
Three Springs offers insight that is helpful to parents and kids who read this forum. And, no, we are not dumb.
Not sure what the word "reforned" means to you.
But I accept the words of Three Springs when he says he is "sorry and remorseful." That is good enough for me, and I respect him for that.
