Yeah. Don't lock them up in the middle of nowhere incommunicado and make a point of isolating them, and this shit won't happen because they won't be able to HIDE this shit. There is no need while in 'therapy' to keep someone isolated and incommunicado.

But, well, then it wouldn't be a program anymore.

Indeed; Straight would never have been able to cover its ass had there been no "confidentiality."

(confidentiality = "what you see here, do here, and hear here remains here.")

Exactly right!!  If yiou read the book you would see that is what works about the place.  These other places that lock kids up are totaly abusive and parents should never do that.

Thats funny, that book and actual information about ASR differ vastly.

NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOUR PROPAGANDA.

TheWho:
If you look at the informaton and some of the findings you will see that what you say, Niles, isnt accurate.  Which part did you see as different?

A portion from the study:

One hundred percent of parents and students that participated in this study said that they would recommend ASR to others…… My findings contradict the idea that making fundamental changes during late adolescence is nearly impossible (Loeber, 1991) and also dispel the myth that long-term treatment is detrimental to normal development. The most important finding of this study is that residential treatment for troubled adolescents has the potential to be extremely effective.

What it takes to pull me through

The woman was a phd candidate from Colgate University and performed an independent study of one of the Therapeutic Boarding schools.
