Tranquility Bay parents on attack
Whooter:
Anyone who would say that parents would want to keep it a secret hasn't met program parents before or do not have an understanding of the situation. I don’t know a parent who would be ashamed of sending a child to Wilderness or a Program. There are those who argue that a child should never be separated from the family for any reason, but aside from that most people feel that the parents went over and above trying to help their child and admire their dedication to helping their children.
Many times the reason placement of a child in a program is not discussed in mixed company or kept quiet is for respect of or to shelter the child from embarrassment. Many of the children want to forget that “Speed Bump” in their lives and discussing it openly reminds the child of mistakes that he/she made in their lives.

Why??????
Oh because he went to Tranquility Bay, com'on Ursus you can't be this arrogant concerning your cause, to think they are ashamed they sent their son to this program and want it hidden.
They are angry because people defamed them.
Wow you folks really just have one way of thinking around here, "your way".
Ursus big world out there, everyone is not operating within your thoughts.
Ursus, I had a parent ask me maybe 3 months ago why are you still posting here. I said, "I really did not know", still don't.
This parent sent her daughter to a Wilderness program, things went awful and she took her daughter back home. Conditions are much better today I might add.
She found this site trying to find forums, threads and posts concerning children and parents with similar experiences, she could not find anything with substance. I tried also but was surprised to find the same results. This is what prompted her to question me.
Funny part is your a parent and many others are too, yet you extend little to parents. Maybe you just don't know how or you have confused latent feeling toward your parents which manifest itself here through a sense of indifference.
No from that short article, I don't believe they are worried about publicity, 400million suit should attest to that.

LOL. Put some muscle behind that motor (mouth), Dannyboy, and you might begin to garner yourself some respect 'round here. 'Till then...

I laughed about this earlier, 'cuz even though these parents might want SOME of this case out in the public, I'm sure they don't want ALL of it ... and that is not something you can control once the press starts airing all the dirty laundry.
However, Whooter is right when it comes to dyed in the wool program parents, and, with all due respect as I'm sure the situation's complex, these would be them alright...

Ursus,
I guess I made my point...aye Ursus. You have not a clue you just react.
The difference between you and I is, I really do not care whether you respect my opinions or not. I am not going to read coverguard or anything else you suggest because as usual it has nothing to do with my "original" point.
In this case the parents of this child are suing for defamation. I then went on to talk about Anon's, going willy nilly because they feel omnipotent.
That's it.....
You can make up what you want from here.....bye bye.

How can you even make an "original point," when you know next to nothing about any of the facts?
And yet you refuse to educate yourself, even when the means are quite literally handed to you?
Oh. Right. How silly of me... :D
