I sent my daughter to Aspen Acheivement Academy 1 1/2 years ago and I truely believe it saved her life. It's a rigorous program. But it has made her stronger than she could ever have been without there help. She had been living with her father for 2 years before going to aspen and had developed a very serious meth addiction. after trying outpatient treatments (she really wanted to stop) that didn't provide enough structure, I hired the escorts to take her to Aspen. It was not an easy decision.
it was less than 8 weeks! and she has been off meth ever since. She admits it was tough but she is happy she went. she read the your posts and walked away laughing. She said it was worth it. she wouldn't be where she it today without them. she probably would have been dead, or in jail by now.
if you went to Aspen your parents cared enough to do there best for you. If you couldn't benefit from it that's your problem. stop whining.

I would like to thank everyone (the above two posts, being the obvious exception) for his or her posts and upfront contributions to this subject. All of the posts including first hand student accounts, parents, and former employees have been very helpful. You have all contributed thoughtful and eloquent ideas. I was pleased to note that there were posts both in favor, and against this program. Thank you to everyone for you opinions and insights into the Aspen program.
However, in response to the two most recent posts?
It is quite obvious that you and your daughter are responsible the above two posts in this forum. Unfortunately both of your posts jeopardize the integrity of an otherwise respectable discussion.
Through the way that you portray yourself through your words and attitude, I too have no doubt that your daughter would have ended up in jail if it weren't for Aspen. Obviously you are an immature and vindictive person, and should not be a role model for a young teenager. It has been said that those who wonder where this younger generation is headed, would do well to consider where it came from!
You betray yourself and your argument with the disrespectful, harsh and immature way that you have approached the topic and responded to the other contributors. Why must you resort to such disrespectful and insulting tactics?
I get the sense that you are from an uneducated, blue-collar type of background; perhaps you yourself come from a rough background. Am I correct in this assumption?

I worked at a facility owned by aspen education in Utah.  I as a parent would NOT send my child there.  I would like to know if anyone knows anything about how they cover up their sexual harassment cases.  I reported  harassment following ALL of the procedures.  Has anyone else been envolved with something similar?  What happened in your instances?

Might post in the Aspen Forum
http://www.fornits.com/wwf/viewforum.php?f=48

Or the Troubled Teen Forum
http://www.fornits.com/wwf/viewforum.php?f=9

They get more activity than this one.
