Anonymous:
I have avoided this site as so many of the posts are mean-spirited and sensational, preying upon parents' fears. I suggest that anyone who is interested in the truth and balanced views visit strugglingteens.com.
My son has been at HLA since February 2006. We have been touched by the caring and nurturing he has received and pleased by the overall program. No program for troubled teens will be without problems, as it is the nature of such work. Still, the few problems we have encountered have been well-addressed and did not cause a moment of concern for the health and safety of our son.
Our son, as well as most of the students at HLA, is receiving excellent counseling and a good education. I would not hesitate to recommend it to any parent whose child fits the requirements. If you are a parent of a troubled teen, do not read from this site or any other like it. Talk to other parents, seek out an educational consultant.
This school has lost admissions because of a lawsuit filed in 2006. The parents involved let their child graduate before filing suit. That alone should make one question the veracity and motives behind the suit. It will do nothing but hurt the many students who hope to graduate from HLA and those who desperately need what HLA has to offer. This is a travesty.
I am a lawyer, my husband is a lawyer, and I am also a nurse. We would be quick to intervene if we saw anything that would cause us to question the effectiveness of this program or the safety of our son. There is nothing that has caused us concern as much as the thought that this school will be damaged by selfish, mean-spirited people who have nothing to lose by their lies. Our son, after his initial attempts to cause us to bring him home, has reported nothing that comes close to abuse or even apathy. He likes his counselors. He likes most of his teachers. He is doing better academically than we hoped.

My son has been at HLA since February 2006. He has been touched by the violation and anal rape he has received, pleasing Len Buccellato quite a bit. No program for troubled teens will be without problems, as the futility of the approach is inherent in its nature. The few problems we have acknowledged have been ignored, but since we really don't give a wan fuck about the health and safety of our son, we left him there anyway.
Our son, as well as most of the students at HLA, is receiving it up the poop chute. I would not hesitate to recommend it to any parent whose child fits the requirements, as I'm getting paid for referrals. If you are a parent of a troubled teen, do not read from this site, close your ears and go la la la, the truth means nothing to you! Talk to other parents (but not the ones filing suit against this shithole!), seek out an educational consultant even though they're making money from your kid getting hurt.
This school has lost admissions because of a lawsuit filed in 2006, and OMG that was LAST YEAR now! The parents involved let their child graduate before getting the party started. That alone should make one realize the horror they must have felt when their kid came home full of hate and rage. (Sur-priiise!) It will do nothing but help the many students who hope to escape from HLA, as no one needs what HLA has to offer. This is a travesty, because I'm not being validated anymore! Waaaaahhhh...
I am a liar, my husband is a liar, and I am also a child abuser. We wouldn't intervene if we saw our kid being raped with a jackhammer. There is nothing that has caused us concern as much as the thought that this school will be damaged by Organized Malcontents who have nothing to lose by telling the truth. Our son, after his initial attempts to cause us to bring him home, has ceased talking to us. But since he's not on this forum and never will be, we can lie all we like and say that he's doing great, even though he's probably going to cut our throats out backwards Al-Qaeda style.

Wow. Just WOW. Lady, your head is stuffed so far up your ass that you can't even see daylight.
Almost everything you said in your post is an utter prevarication. I guess, coming from a lawyer, it's your nature to lie.
For any parents reading, just read the threads and skip the flame wars. This lady obviously doesn't have access to any inside information at HLA, or she would realize that nearly every single accusation regarding HLA has been vetted and verified by current and former staff.
Not that this matters much anyway. HLA will be gone as we know it very, very soon.
Lawyer Lady, rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic wouldn't have stopped it from sinking, now would it? Your spin is pathetc.
Troll Control:
BTW, Lawyer Lady, you lied about the parents who filed suit as well. They PULLED their kids and were denied a refund of prepaid tuition, as were many others.
I'd love to see HLA lawyer up with dolt like you. It'd be as sure a shot to win as anyone could hope for.
