BTW, for what it's worth, since this is the thread to put it in, here is a link to the HLA Class-Action Suit thread in the Hidden Lake forum:

--- Quote from: ""Ursus"" ---They try to change the language.  They offer parents the illusion that the "problem" their child is experiencing need not be addressed by "that blood-sucking psycho establishment.   "

blove82 passed along that mindset, however innocently:

Seminars are not "group therapy" but "character education."  Your child is not "depressed," he/she is suffering from not striving for his best.  Likewise for self-esteem issues.  Etc. etc.  

Sorry, but rope-climbing challenges and character assassination just don't cut it for me, as far as addressing some of the above.

Old post from someone there long ago:

--- Quote from: ""Guest"" ---There is a line. It is not a bright line but there none the less, where chemistry takes over and attitude and choice fade. Telling some one with a bipolar disorder that schizophrania is a choice is like telling some one with diarhea that shitting is a choice. Try it next time you are so afflicted. I remember kids with real problem being told to make the choice. I don't think it worked for most of them. I don't know if they do that any more. Hope not.

NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, presents this first comprehensive state-by-state analysis of mental health care systems in 15 years. Every U.S. state has been scored on 39 specific criteria resulting in an overall grade and four sub-category grades for each state. The national average grade is D. Five states receive grades in the B range. Eight receive Fs. None received As.

With mental health care services of this quality it’s no wonder that there is a big
business with private boarding schools and therapeutic adventure programs filling
the vacuum.

That handsome map from the link above:



Interestingly, Maine is one of the higher scorers.  Not surprisingly, the poorest scoring states are where the majority of these troubled teen setups have seen fit to reside in.
