To psy and Ursus, Che, Joel, Inculcate,

Ursus and psy, remember this below, it speaks volumes of your lack of experience and your need to overcompensate with your intellect. Your mommy and daddy held the cards and dealt you both like a straight flush, whether you want to admit this or not. Your lack of experience and real life maturity does not qualify you as having a credible input into the decision your referring to. I find it hard to believe nobody had any idea what was going on and when you did realize why it did not stop immediately. Parents not being able to talk with their children draws a major red flag in most households I know, especially since you two were such wonderful children.
What a fucking stretch in thinking from you two.
 
Che and Joel,  you did not even go to a program. Working for one buys you a cup of coffee buts stills doesn't let you in.

Inculcate,  I just don't know....? Yet you actually really care for this site and people. I feel that and never acknowledge it.

Examples:
Psy spoke:
I wasn't. I was sent to a boarding school recommended by an educational consultant. Neither myself or my parents (they claim, and i believe them) knew it was a behavior modification program. At the time we weren't getting along due to various complex reasons and since it was too late to enroll in a normal school and since we all really wanted a break from each other I agreed to enroll in what I thought was a fairly normal place with *optional* therapy in the afternoons which I did not plan to participate in. I had no idea there was a level system or that the school was not actually a school (education was done at a local adult school we were bussed to and supervised at). I had no idea communication would be cut, that my property and identification would be confiscated, etc etc...

Ursus spoke:
Lol. Same thing at Hyde School! The plan was that I go to boarding school. There were some issues at home that weren't working out and putting a change of physical location and separation between differing parties was considered to be the ticket. There were no issues with my school attendance, drugs, sex, what-not. I was, all things considered, a pretty boring kid. Hyde gave my family a real hard sell. It was "just like those other prep schools, but with an added bonus" - the 'character education' component.

<cough>

Little did we know that it actually was a character cult.

The degree of spin that these places employ when it comes to their marketing is pretty difficult for the average person to believe.

About as complicated as your spin on what happened. Not very!!!!!!!

Felice, I get perfectly what you are conveying in this post and you know I do. I haven't missed anything concerning this industry for 32 years.
Thanks anyways, Felice
