Didn't Inside Edition send in a producer posing as a parent.  How did that turn out?

It seems not to have been a problemn, but the talk here is sending in someone as a Student - very different; in my opinion, b/c you would be putting them at risk for very little actual benifit. Unless, maybe, they happen to be law inforcment.

You could send a reporter in as a student and have them have an innocuous safeword set up with the "parent" reporters.

You couldn't get a camera in, but an undercover reporter would be more credible than a real "troubled teen" in the eyes of most people.

The reporter wouldn't be at serious risk if he/she had been given protection against brainwashing.  The ideal thing undercover reporter would be a babyfaced   ex-military graduate of SERE school---the next best thing would be a babyfaced reporter who had undergone preparation in SERE techniques with a qualified psychologist with extensive cult exit counseling experience.

Basically, you can insulate someone against brainwashing by telling them, in advance, what's going to happen and what they're going to be told or brainwashed with, and presenting the counter-arguments to the brainwashing to them.

Nelly Bly took substantial risk for her story.

We need a hero with that much chutzpah.

Oh, that might work! What if an older person w/ similar training were to go in as staff? Maybe an escort who's had a temporary lapse of insanity?
