***You know for all the bluster here about the "dangers" of HLA, all the risky practices, somebody's going to get a wrong pill under the new plan, and so on, I don't hear about anyone being injured or dying.

Alledgedly, there has been one near death, several attempted suicides, several assaults, rape, inappropriate sexual relationships, and many injuries. You obviously have not followed the discussion; or have selective memory.
Because HLA is not properly licensed, this information is not available to parents who might be interested. Currently they would have to find it here. I'd say Fornits provides a useful service to discerning parents.

***Compare this to the chance that a oppositional kid who is acting out in self-destructive ways is likely hurt him or herself. Like with drugs or risky or criminal behaviors.  Not to mention the impact on future possibilities of school and work success.

Chances of death in public school-
1 in a million
Chances of death in a program-
1 in 2,300

***All over America, parents dispense meds to their kids without having medical training themselves, why shouldn't a receptionist or other non-medical person be able to learn to do the same?

Parents are not keeping track of 75-100 kids and their meds. They also have a vested interest in their child's well being, unlike an employee of a program, who may not be as careful.

***Pretty small risk compared to what the kid could be doing on the outside.

Could be, depends on the kid. There is a reason states require medical personnel to administer drugs. You won't find receptionists doling out meds in public schools.

O5, you really should use this time to educate yourself before opening your own program. What might the damages be when you allow the janitor to distribute meds and a kid dies?
BTW, what's your interest in HLA? Just that it's a CEDU spin-off?

Deb, please... I could make a program and do a better job than all of these my damn self if I felt like it, granted I had venture capital (or pay-for-a-year parents!)

I'm not sure what that was in response to but... okay.

"Alledgedly"-  the key word (although it is misspelled)
