You have absoluetly "no idea" what these people are writing about because you haven't been there- instead you sit and surf the net causing more crap with your grim reaper personna and Nazi  attitude -should you be the ones that don't have the guts to now put your names down, as you degrade yourselves. Can't you see he cares?  So leave this for people who are trying to warn those people who are thinking about sending a loved one to this place  and put your crap on some other site.

--- Quote from: ""Guest"" ---I teach at Escuela Caribe, and I believe your hostility towards our school is unmerited.



In regards to the "guilt by association" argument, Escuela Caribe is not related to Teen Help or any other organization.  It is part of New Horizons Youth Ministries which runs our school here in the D.R., a campus in Merion, Indiana, and a summer academy in Ontario, Canada.  We do not pay people to refer students to us; word-of-mouth is sufficient to direct interested parents to us.



I think you also misunderstand the type of students that we have here.  These are not your typical well-adjusted (more or less) high school students.  These students have already rejected a relationship with their parents and are involved in highly destructive activities (e.g., gangs, drug use or distribution, suicide attempts, living on the streets).  Believe me, we want these kids to have a relationship with their family, and the "psychological disorientation" produced by "culture shock" is an important ingredient in helping the students to realize that they want to have a relationship with their family.  We try to keep the environment as non-institutional as possible: students live in "houses" with houseparents.  The key to success here is relationship and love.  These kids (and families) have already had therapy (although we do that too), and it hasn't worked. We believe that it is through loving relationships that these kids will change.  So we love them.

Merion, huh? The letter e is a few key strokes from the letter "a". You are speaking of Marion, IN maybe? If you were even there and really are a staff? What subjects do you teach and what state are you licensed under to teach? Hopefully you are not one of the many unlicensed teachers or counselors on staff.

It is a complete fallacy that most of the students are as you described "highly destructive, in gangs, drug dealing, living on the streets". In fact we were average teens with not so average fundamentalist christian parents. NHYM perverted our parents fundamentalist beliefs and used a "violent love of Christ" on it's students that included stripping of students and scrubbing their bodies with harsh laundry brushes for punishment, denial of restroom facilities, denial of mattresses to sleep on, denial of food and water, & denial of health care.

The house like home? What a joke. Sleeping 6 or more to a room, in constant group contact from dawn to dusk, no desk of your own at home, no comfy couch. Down time is even organized. Worse yet you are supervised constantly by someone who has as kooky, if not more so kooky fundamentalist beliefs as your parents and they hold the power in allowing you to go home. Private part inspections ordered by staff on other students. Slamming heads against walls for forgetting to ask to enter a room or not saying excuse me to a female staff. Kicking you if your push up wasn't perfect.  Chasing you around on motorcycle as punishment. Forcing kids to crap in buckets and carry it around. Making ill teens work with severe cases of diarrhea, even when dehydrated. Maybe your home and every fundamentalist home is like this  and you'd feel comfy in it. If so let me pray for you. You are a twisted teacher and shouldn't be near anyones kids.

Concept

Why in the Dominican Republic? There are three reasons: atmosphere, culture shock, and distance.
