If the kids not religious or a jew or something it might make them alienated and the treatment less effective.

I'd be curious to hear how exactly this works and what it entails and how the bible will help these girls with eating disorders. It's not exactly a matter of faith, an issue like this.
Karass:
I know a guy whose daughter went to this place. It's not a BM quackery TBS, but an actual treatment facility with real doctors, etc. They only treat eating disorders, they don't take just anyone, and they don't accept kids who don't want to be there (i.e., no escort business).
The Bible stuff rubs me the wrong way, but to each his own.
Perhaps Maia's 10 questions should be expanded to include:
11. Do you accept children who are escorted against their will?
12. Do you treat other disorders besides the one advertised (or the one my kid has)?
An eating disorder can literally be a matter of life & death, and not in the program-speak "insanedeadorinjail" meaning, but for real. Serious programs for ED know this and have real doctors practicing evidence-based treatment methods. Obviously some have a religious bent as well, but there are others that don't.
Just because a place is in-patient doesn't make it a BM mindfuck quackery business.

I was planning to ask them question 11(they answered 12) when I call them back! But yeah I got the same impression you did, it seems to be real treatment and not a PROGRAM.

I'll back down and concur on this one- this isn't the same kind of crap we discuss here, and they seem to be legit despite their Christianity.
