AARC is moving along fine and still growing
Treatment centers, legitimate clinics don't "
Grow"
Organizations, cults, "
Grow"
I can't speak for Ajax, but I can speak for myself.
The only reason I fight for this is because I don't want to see another family suffer. Families go to this place needing help. Families TRUST them!!!
What do they do with this trust?
They deceive you.
They take away your rights.
They take away your belief in yourself.
They take away your autonomy.
They violate your natural relationship with your family.
I keep hearing about the ends justifying the means.
AARC says what happens to kids in the program is better than being out in the gutter somewhere. Well, breaking a person's legs isn't as bad as cutting their legs off... but that doesn't make it legal or OK to break their legs.
IMO AARC is as successful as putting a kid in a war camp for a year. They're going to come out a different person. Does that make it OK? A traumatized changed person, who's new existence/identity is a member of "AARC" forever having to give back?
There comes a time when too many people are harmed and enough people exercise their moral responsibility to speak up, the blinders come off, and "programs" are exposed for what they really are and what they really do to people.
The time is now.
