--- Quote from: ""sm"" ---i was sent to peachford my first day at HLA. the reason i was sent was because i refused to comply with their "strip search." im not sure if they asked or told my parents if i was going, but i can tell everyone one thing, i was treated ten times better at peachford then i was at HLA. thats for sure.

Strip searching was never authorized by parents nor was it stated to parents, nor is it in the Parent Handbook. Please call Kit Wallace at CPS.

Lol we were strip searched every single time we came back on campus from a break. They lined us all up in the gym when we got back and took us one by one in the back and we got naked. Girls had to squat and cough, had to lift up their boobs to they could see that there wasnt anything taped underneath... It sucked.

Same thing with the guys, replace boobs with privates...

Also - Do parents have to give their consent for their child to be sent to Peachford?
No... my child was admitted to Peachford because he/she would not sign a "Contract for Safety" or something like that stated he/she would not hurt himself/herself. The day after he/she was admitted at Peachford, we received a phone call from the HLA Psychiatrist who explained to us why he/she was admitted there.
Ironically, the Psychiatrist at Peachford told us the story about the girl at HLA who tried to hang herself. He also suggested that we should not return our child to HLA as they were not qualified to deal with our child's issues. He/she never did return to HLA.
At the same time, several employees at Peachford did not hesitate to suggest the names of Educational Consultants to help with placement at another program. Our child is now at an Aspen Group facility out west. My spouse and I are not very optimistic that the new facility will do much better, despite the sales job we received from the Ed. Cons.

MGDP - Lighten up on the parent. It sounds like they're in a tough situation trying to protect their child from self-destructing. Be a little more constructive and let people know what you've heard about that facility. There are kids out there that really do need help. Unfortunately too many places, such as HLA, take advantage of a desparate situation. (I pulled my kid out of HLA, but I also needed to make sure I was doing the right thing.)
Seriously, some of the stuff that is purported to take place at HLA seemed impossible and surreal. But thanks to the kindness of people on this forum, I was able to make an educated decision based on facts to get my kid out of that hell hole. I am eternally grateful to those people.
People that are new to Fornits need some compassion, not to be called names and ridiculed. I'm lucky I have a thick skin or else I would have not gotten back on this site. Some people are more sensitive and you may completely turn them away from Fornits by jumping down their throats - especially when it seems like a call for help.
Just a thought....
