Unless you have severe brain damage, to the point of not remembering what you said just two posts prior to this denial, then your intention was to start another trolling session.

Deborah, I never made the statement that kids in public or private schools were fobbiden to talk to family for months, I would never make a statement like that. I think what you misconstrued is that I said:
? Communication is restricted in varying degrees in all educational settings (Private and public), wilderness and Therapeutic Boarding schools are no exception? ..... Someone ,guest, took that as meaning that all the school have the same requirements...which of course they dont....why do you have to be so harsh? Just ask me what I meant, wouldnt that be easier, to clear up what my thoughts were?
Deborah:
No, of course you didn't. Not your style. Your MO is to leave it vague enough so the back-and-forth goes on for pages before you clarify or divulge what you really meant.
Were you not attempting to imply that TBS and public schools are not all that different? Comparing the limited contact kids in TBSs have with their parents and the brainwashing they undergo re: "manipulating their parents" with accusations about the program, with kids in public school who see their parents every night and can easily report the day's happenings. They're not even in the same ball park.

Precisely why programs should not be allowed to sever contact between parent and child, ever, unless it's been proved in court to be detrimental to the child.
--- Quote ---I am sure some schools exist which try to manipulate the parents because there are all types, but they are probably few and far between.

Probably few and far between? Please cite any program(s) that doesn't require parents to severely limit contact with their kid because it's 'necessary' for the 'emotional growth'. Any program(s) that don't deny contact with parents as punishment. It's the CEDU way.

Would that be unethical? Almost like saying TBS and RTC, Boot Camps are the same?

Doesn?t sound like any TBS I know. You must be talking about a specific place, not all TBSs.

Name any traditional boarding school that doesn?t limit contact with a child?s family. The shear distance alone should be abusive in your definition, why limit it to writing letters or phone calls?

They have more in common then a TBS does with a public school. Anyone who'd actually experienced the two (not you) knows that.

That you know? Cindy you dont know any TBS's. You bought into the brochures of two programs. One of which is apparently being sued for abusing kids, the other has been operating the entire time without being properly licensed.
Since youre such an expert though why dont you tell us of a single TBS that doesnt censor or monitor communications. A single one Cindy.

Wow youre stupid. It would be laughable if it werent for the fact that kids are being abused because of idiots like you. Explain to us how a traditional boarding school limiting the time or the location in which a kid may call his parents is the same thing as a TBS screening and censoring all incoming and outgoing mail/email as well as having staff members standing by to terminate any phone call in which a kid states anything that might be deemed manipulation and then punishing the child for doing so? How many traditional boarding schools prevent the child from calling his parents for weeks or even months at a time?
Rattle off a few names for us Cindy.
