Ok, I am posting as a person who went through the treatment of AARC as a sibling. Did I hate AARC? Well, given that I was a sibling the awnser is yes. AARC sucked as a sibling as since I was living outside the province with my mom we had to drive in almost every weekend for the first half my brother was in AARC. I didn't hate AARC because it tried to brainwash me :lol: I disliked AARC because it was a strain on my life to drive about eight hours to get there on friday, and than spend my friday night at AARC.

Now like most other places you go in this world AARC had people I liked and others I disliked. Though I do know some amazing people worked at AARC when I went through AARC as a sibling.

As for AARC brainwashing kids into thinking they are "drugies" when somebody's goal for the day is to simply get high, I am sorry but you are a druggie.

A week ago I was at a AARC grad, and well another family which thanks to AARC has their family back together.

My last point is going to be on Dr. Vause. Great guy. Saved my brothers life, and helped the rest of my family.

Oh well I am off.

Hi there!
My brother went through a program called RMA in Idaho. I kinda know how you feel but I never had to drive to see my brother. We flew ever now and then though. And he came home on visits. I don't get why so many people think that these programs are a bad thing it help my brother in many many ways. Are you a Canadian? I live in the USA but I have Canadian citizenship too because my mom was born in Canada. Please reply!

Yeah I am Canadian. I laugh when I read some of this stuff. The whole idea of places like AARC being a cult.

You see, this is the problem though with places like aarc, it wasn't everybody's goal for the day.  Some of the kids in there had only smoked pot a couple times.  It wasn't their goal, they were just going through normal teenage stuff, but get into aarc and suddenly you're a drug addict. It's hammered into you so much, that you eventually start to believe it.
