Treatment Abuse, Behavior Modification, Thought Reform > The Ridge Creek School / Hidden Lake Academy
Just my opinion...

No thanks necessary. I didn't know Tamara but have met Mark on several occasions. I don't question that your child may have benefited from the experience. Unfortunately, he may be one in several hundred that didn't. My statement wasn't a personal attack against the Keith's...I'm sorry you took it as such. As a staff member at HLA I left because I didn't support the program and recognized that it wouldn't change. Again, I stand by my original statement that if staff members stay they must be supporting HLA and all of its practices regardless of their individual contributions.

You know this really is sort of the quintessential HLA response:
"Don't focus on what we're doing, focus on yourself and your anger. What's that you say? We're doing the exact same thing we're admonishing you for? Nonsense! Pay no attention to the man behind the curtian!"

Tamara-
You and Mark are awesome people. I have seen the difference you two have made in the lives of many children and staff. Thank you so much for all of your support.
If you don't know who this is...your mom probably does. :P

She took it upon herself to get to know my child. He reached out to her and she responded. For the most part the "counselors" didn't give a crap about my kid. But Tamara did.
I'll get called a "lying shill" again. Whatever. I have nothing good to say about HLA these days. But don't judge Tamara unless you know her.

Me too. And I agree with this 100%. If you know what's going on and choose to stay and don't go to the authorities to report the rampant abuse, then you are ONE OF THE ABUSERS and fully deserving of a full share of scorn and blame.
Now, as far as supporting the Keith's, all I need do is look at the records from ORS showing Mr. Keith has been cited for running the facility improperly, withholding food, allegedly beating a child, not reporting abuse or suicide tries, falsifying/destroying/not keeping records, etc. I wouldn't let that fucker anywhere NEAR my kid. Remember also that what the investigators actually find and cite is normally only a fraction of the violations - only the ones that can be proven.
HLA is dirty. Any staff still taking money from it is equally as dirty or worse.
