Peninsula Village forum?

If hot latina teens deserves a forum, then I think an abusive program deserves one too, it's only fair. And we all know how fair life is.

--- Quote from: ""ZenAgent"" ---For a description, we could use something like a forum for survivors (and parents) to discuss their experiences at PV and discuss activism and efforts toward shutting the place down.  My wife and I know all the current PV posters except Milkblood, maybe we can plan a group IM session with the PV crew, Ginger, Webdiva, Hanzomon and Psy to map it out.

Thanks, Ginger, for taking an interest in this abominable place.  I was seriously ready to give up, I guess you know that.  When it ate at me until I couldn't sleep, I knew I couldn't walk away.  My family needs to see it through.

Course, Zen, As I've been mulling this wicked issue over for the past decade or so I've come to two major conclusions. 1. The troubled parent industry is not an isolated problem in our society. It's a natural outcropping of pervasive societal ill. It will not be fully resolved in our lifetime. 2. Following on that you have to pace yourself. There will always be something astir.

I'd be happy to group IM anytime soon. Just not too sure how much time I'll have online in the next week or so cause I'm moving.

But, mean time, I need some detail for a description. PV is a CEDU clone, what's the hard link? Something like this:

"     Hyde Schools
Hyde boarding schools in Bath, Maine and Woodstock, Connecticut; Hyde Leadership Public Charter School in Washington, D.C. Joseph Gauld founded the original Hyde School in 1966 in Bath, Maine. Founded in 1989, Hyde Leadership is a non-profit, tax-exempt institution governed by an independent Board of Trustees.
Moderator Nobody"

Well. Just one note...  I don't think PV is a CEDU clone (though I might be wrong).  I think I'm going to enjoy this new forum, though...  I say go for it and create the forum.  PV is shitty enough by far to deserve it's own forum.

I'm not sure if CEDU was the model, either.  Initially it may have been, but PV has metamorphed several times in twenty years.  PV got a bit of heat applied for their overuse of the goon hand on the kids early in the decade, and claimed to "clean up".  It looks like the current PV is styled after it's nearby NATSAP kin, HLA, right down to the gross misrepresentations I clarified on the PV licensing thread.  I think what I found in the PV handbook is the smoking gun on that particular license issue, we've got a couple others to nail down.

Now there seems to be a new "direction" at PV - very Christian oriented.  Check out their latest batch of new hires on the PV website.  Praise Gawd and pass the Thorazine...

SettleForNothingLess:
I am very happy to see PV have its own forum... I think that the one in TTI is totally ruined now because of the complete losss of focus... Thank you for adding this!!! I will post soon... Ive got a bad sinus infection right now...but you know ill be back quicker than you can say "Nurse Ratchett, get 5mg of Thorazine ready"

Che Gookin:
having a forum, moderated or otherwise, will do little to ensure focus on the threads. I'm torn on the idea, but in the end it has more to do with the people who endured the shithole, and very little to do with my own personal opinion. Hopefully the new forum, should it come about, will thrive into a vigorous community.

Ursus:
How about this as a compromise:  sub-forums.

This way PV-related threads can be grouped together, but still dwell within a larger forum of common interest.

If this is do-able, it might also serve as an umbrella-type format for not so frequently frequented forums with similar philosophy and/or origin and/or target clientele.  I'm thinking here of Benchmark plus this program recently posted about in New Info called SLSHealth, whose targets are older teens and young adults.
