I followed a group of kids as they went through Swift River’s 14-month program. I camped with them, sat in on group therapy sessions, listened to them play guitar, watched them in workshops about dating, sex and time management. Although I volunteered as an English teacher, everyone knew I was an author working on a book and not a faculty member. When the group spent the final five weeks doing community service in Costa Rica’s remote Osa Peninsula, I was there. For the first time in my career, I didn’t want scoops or exclusive information; I wanted to see things unfold gradually, just as Swift River’s counselors did........

Whoops, I think you stepped in it!!! Ha,Ha,Ha seems you bought into the whole fornits hype that “all programs are evil” Pile? All I ask is to keep an open mind. Don’t be brainwashed by the negativity here. Most of the programs out there are helping the kids move forward.
I don’t think that you realized that a Pulitzer prize winning author spent 14 months living with a peer group at the academy at Swift river. And he subsequently wrote a book about it. I don’t think you will ever see it on the reading list here on fornits though.... Hmmmm Wonder why?
Hint, Hint…. There is a big world outside of fornits loaded with information that never sees its way inside of these walls. I just gave you a small peek at the information available to you and it blew your mind!! Lol.

ROFL, and a link to the author of one of the most ridiculous fucking books on the subject.
You keep on bringing out the bullshit, we'll just keep on laughing.
ESPECIALLY when the kids die, Whooter. That's the part I love the most.
More! More crap about "you're all brainwashed" and "just keep an open mind"! C'mon, Whooter! It's still not enough yet- the kids are still dead. You haven't spouted nearly enough crap to make them come back to life, which is what happens if you just keep on making posts!
But you have to make new topics, not stuff you've tried before.
Enough of this fruitcake. There's a woman here about to make a dangerous, possibly fatal mistake.

Sorry I had to put you in your place,Pile. You didn’t realize the link I posted was from a Harvard Journal? Next time check the sources and READ IT and you may not embarrass yourself (or me embarrassing you again). Now that we have forced you guys to post under your user names it makes it a little tougher to troll now doesn't it, Pile? lol Back up what you say next time.
If you still think Academy at Swift River didn’t have a Costa Rica portion in their program then bring on the evidence, otherwise clean yourself up and try to realize you have been brainwashed by the propaganda here.

According to our research they had the Costa Rica part in their program until 2007 or 2008. For reasons unknown it was discontinued.
Also Mount Bachelor Academy used to travel to Costa Rica until 2005 or 2006. For reasons unknown they suddenly settled for the eastern europe, which I personally find dangerous. As far as I am informed the 50 years of communist rule left the countries in ruins. Only Bulgaria seems to have found a way to found the rebuilt of their country by hosting binge drinking holidays for European Youth at the Sunny Beach area. However I don't think that it is a good idea at all for minors to leave their own country with their school. I found a Danish blog which tells something about the problems connected with sending high school students to the Eastern Europe.
