Ivy Ridge. Dont let them take him there. Get him psychiatric help and counseling. That place caused my son to have what I call a "break down". He came back, after 3-1.2 weeks much worse than when he left. Maybe they should look at intrepidnetreporter.com or this site. I had NO IDEA what i was sending him in to. I have never felt so ashamed and so much guilt. I sent him there to HELP HIM, and when I think about what happened to him it makes me cry. I think I don't know everything b/c more is just now coming out. I hope they find some other way to help him. I know for a fact that they beat him there b/c I saw the bruises all over his body when I came there to get him, i heard his stories and believe him, i read his letters saying explaining something is wrong with me, i don't belong here, i think i'm scziophrenic, i cant sleep, i cry all the time, they told me if i don't stop crying at night, i will have to stay in isolation at night and on an on, i cant express how sad it all makes me, my son, never been away from home, yet i dropped him there with complete strangers, who abused him both mentally and physicall. I'll never forget the look on his face the day i showed up there, six months ago, to get him, after finding negative news articles. The WWASP parents who recommended me, I cannot understand how their children benefited from this.
it still hurts so bad to even think about it.
