They get paid to refer.  Advertising dollars at the very least.


--- Quote ---This industry, besides being unregulated, seems to pray upon those whose emotions are high and hopes are low.  The industry hopes to be a rainmaker, and yet is concerned with $$ and power...

It's called "snake oil"

Anonymous:
What facility is your son in at the moment?

(In all likelihood, there's going to be a loud chorus of "Get him out NOW", and I intend for the chorus to be adequately informed.)

First, let's remember this is my FORMER husband.  Hitting is not allowed....

My son is classified as an addict.  He used weed, alcohol, Rx drugs and mushrooms.  No nail polish or Marilyn.  In fact, he is a very compliant kid.  

Snake oil is a good term.  And they sell it by the gallons...

--- Quote from: ""mel0731"" ---Thanks for hopping on....What do you know about the Discovery Academy?  My understanding is that the owners were once with Provo Canyon.  Any truth to that?  Is it true that the main facility is a run-down Holiday Inn??  Why do you have to sign up for six months?

Two questions... then i expect you will be able to answer your own:

When does the refund period expire?  im guessing a week max..
How long after placement can't you talk to your son? i'm guessing a month or so.

now:  Why do you have to sign up for six months?

clear yet?

My son is at the Sundown Ranch in TX.  It is a residential treatment facility for teens and young adults....
