When you can't win a battle

But that's exactly what we did, shitbird.

We'll see.  And even if you're right, it was still a gigantic risk.

"Get better at taking it up the ass" still carries risks of STD infection, but does reduce anal fissures; yes, it is a lower risk than running away which might make it tighten up a little bit.

The reality of you Niles, is just bullshit. You are no better then the Joe Ricci's and the Semblers, ect...You have a great speech (probably been working on it for weeks) all the bells and whistles about abuse, manipulation, all the wonderful words you have heard here and other places....fucking bla bla bla.
Your a phony all they way down to your core, why??? because of your incessant need to sexually debase Psy, all of your criticism and narcissistic crap is sexually based, you exposed her on a pornographic site. Your a fucking pig. This is what parents want to see, you are asking a audience here to read and accept what you have to say as meritorious. That you have a child's welfare in mind, you look and act like a sexual deviant, Niles.
All of your friends Che, PODK's and the other chicken shit motherfuckers who can not cop to their shit. 99% of you, have never been in a program ( being staff doesn't count, assholes) and are not parents, you have no fucking clue.
You clowns, coming on here acting like you had something to do with the ongoing dilemma she is living along with her parents. Some fucking hero's, you are cheap ignorant mercenaries, you are going to end up killing someone.

This is how you young boys like to have fun, at the expense of a young lady;
(20:58:08) Che_Gookin: she's currently in a brother where she is selling herself to the highest bidder in exchange for tawdry sexual favors.
(20:58:22) Che_Gookin: brother= brothel whoopsie
(21:16:42) Nihilanthic: Che stop fantasizing about Morgan.

I was fakeposting you fucking idiot.

Also all the other shit you've said is bullshit too. I recommend learning to tell sarcasm without having to beg PST9K to do it for you.

Lol, Danny and your outrage. This is why the majority of the forum passes you off as some sort of stumbling drunk fucking moron who probably can't even tie your own shoe laces. I had nothing to do with Morgan bailing. I actually pointed out to her before she ran that doing so and getting caught ensures her a trip to somewhere worst than Academy at Sisters.

 My feeling of this issue have been relayed to both Pile of Dongs and Niles privately. I'm just not taking this thread very seriously as it is mostly venting, bullshit, and posturing.

Have fun with your sound bytes.

At any rate, if that fails, at least making an attempt to evade a program until 18

For her, evading program wouldn't have meant months.  It would have meant years.  She would have been caught by then.  It would be a guaranteed lockdown for her then.  Plus, how would she get an education.  Education at programs may generally suck but it's better than nothing.

She seemed to have been disappeared somewhere since March 2011. Did she end up at a program in the end?

Testimony from a well-known survivor:

I've thrown pieces of my story around this sub a couple of times, but nothing too memorable, so I'll just leave it short and sweet by saying I had an extremely abusive childhood, coupled with absentee parents, and was eventually put into two separate "troubled youth" facilities - one for 41 days which wasn't bad minus transport and solitary confinement and the other for a year and a handful of months, which was abusive, demeaning, and awful - for running away from home to avoid being sent to a clearly neglected - we took a tour together - facility in my home state for, as my parents stated, "someone to do our parenting for us" - yes, verbatim. I never had a drug problem, never committed any crimes, and was simply trying to take control of my life before they continued to beat me into the ground any further - wouldn't recommend it, but in my situation it was all I could do. I needed something to change.

Anyway, It's been quite some years since I've been in either facility, I'm an adult, I've moved past it - for the most part, some PTSD and anxiety still sticks around but it's nothing I can't live with - and I'm trying to make up for the time I lost. Unfortunately, due to financial hardship, I've had to move back in with my parents temporarily - with someone else, no worries, he keeps me sane - and it's been rocky but bearable. Today, however, my mother brings up that one of the program directors of the abusive facility I attended emailed her to check up the other day, and she was going to forward it to me so I could maybe have a nice chat and give him an update? To which I say - a little rudely, today has been excessively rough for a sea of reasons - "Why on earth would you forward me that? Why in gods name would I want to look back on that time in my life?" She then tries to change my attitude. "Oh brother. Why not start looking at that time as a positive, instead of sitting in self pity?" This has been a constant point of disagreement for us since I left the program. I've taken accountability for the things I did to get myself there - running away isn't acceptable, our lack of communication was all of our faults, etc. - but I refuse to believe that sending me there was the best/their only option. As well, I've gained some knowledge and changed some traits because of my time there, but I refuse to see that experience as a positive. Nothing about what I witnessed there was acceptable, respectful of the clients, or in-line with my morals. I was ripped from my bed in the middle of the night and driven three states away with a single bathroom break, no food, no water, no explanation, and constant bullying from the transporters. I was subjected to cruel and rather unusual methods of punishment, and made to feel like I wasn't a valuable human being - nonetheless a human being. Sure, I graduated high school early, but that's a small upside to the situation overall. Along with that, my parents are now in a pool of debt whilst unemployed because they spent both my and their savings on this place that is admittedly dishonest to potential customers - they'd even have us clients feed hopeful parents stories to keep their interest.

She scoffs at me any time I try and explain to her why I try and ignore that period of my life, and won't look at it as a good thing. Is it just denial, and her trying to feel alright with her decision, or is there just no hope for getting parents to believe the wrongdoings of facilities that convince them their kids are manipulating when they explain the troubles they face from these programs?

tl;dr: went to two programs, try to discuss how awful they were with parents years down the line as an adult, constantly belittled and told i'm dramatizing it. no hope to reach the same page?

She ended up at Eagle Ranch Academy. Every source we could find showed that it was way worse than Academy at Sisters.

This was the result of the attack on her parents in public. She was punished with a boot camp which gave her a rubber diploma she should be lucky to get credits for. I am not stating that she would have loved Academy at Sisters. It is also a for profit place but it would have been easier to get the social services involved.

A better strategy is needed in future cases. The focus must be to attack the facilities, the employees and not least the owners. She is not living a happy life right now.
