I find this thinking fascinating as well. Most "program parents" wouldn't last one day inside a program.
And, yes, now because of the lack of treatment and supervision these girls were afforded the opportunity to commit some serious felony crimes and the rest of their lives will be severely affected by it. If they were already criminals, then they weren't properly supervised and RCS is proved to be very dangerous. If they were more or less normal kids, then RCS is proved to induce criminality under duress and mix criminals with kids in need of treatment. Either way...

--- Quote from: "Dysfunction Junction" ---The salient point here is very simple. These facilities market themselves a "schools" that provide "therapy," but in reality, they are dangerous private jails for criminal and mentally disturbed kids. They are run by unqualified people, lack supervision, don't help any kids and put residents and staff at extreme risk to their health and well being.
Nobody is "getting back on track" at TBSs. They are getting psychologically and physically assaulted by the staff members and are at extreme risk from other residents who often rape, beat, batter and assault one another due to almost a complete lack of supervision or treatment of any kind.

It totally debunks the argument that these kids have no problems.

I don't think anyone believes that these kids have no problems, I believe that the "treatment" they receive in therapeutic boarding schools will make these problems worse, every time. Did these two girls have violent criminal records? They do now. Why do adults expect teens to conform to an environment that they themselves would NEVER tolerate?

As far as the treatment these kids are receiving, Shady, I didnt see anything in the article that said they were treated poorly.

"Since the incident was not reported as an attack it was only after talking to the suspects that investigators discovered what had taken place at the boarding school, said Childress."
It appears the counselors are still trained very well in covering up the "total" incident.

What happened if those girls had killed someone while driving like reckless maniacs?
Whooter - stop trying to derail the conversation by making your idiotic comments. It's really pathetic, but that's always been your M.O.

It only makes people wonder even more exactly how many serious crimes were committed on the grounds and either never reported or reported as some different type of incident to keep a lid on how dangerous RCS actually is to kids.
