Thanks for clearning that up for me.  I am glad someone knows what Thayer is really like.

I honestly think that they would not hurt someone on purpose. I went there for a year and almost 1/2. They are awsome people. They will surely be the most remembered by me. They changed my life completely around! Noone eles could do that for me at least.

That sounds a lot like a commercial.

I mean, we're on the internet and without verifiable information (which few people give for obvious reasons of personal privacy and safety) we don't know who the other people we talk to really are.

We don't know if you're one of the Bundies, or a friend or relative of theirs, or someone with a financial interest, or a kid still there logging in from there at their behest, or a kid who was a student there but is still underage and afraid of going back, or a kid who just got out six months ago and hasn't detoxed from the over-controlled environment yet.

We *do* know a kid died and they didn't call the ambulance for five minutes.

Maybe there's a good reason for that---like he was outside and it took awhile for help to get to a phone.

Maybe there's not.

One thing we *do* know is that the Bundies have a financial interest in looking good---which means when a basically anonymous person posts uncritical praise in a thread like this, it's not automatically not credible, but it *does* need to be taken with a certain grain of salt.

One of the things that might help readers tell how big or little that grain of salt needs to be would be if you could tall us a bit more about yourself.

How old are you, how long have you been out, what are you doing with your life now, etc.

Obviously no every child is abused in these facilities. Some fall into the conditioning while others fight it.   Those who go along with the reprograming seem to have a better opinion of the program.  We really need to admit that the programs can help some children - but not most.  Those who buck the system are often the ones who suffer the most abuse and maltreatment.  Honesty isn't the best policy when it comes to youth treatment.   :cry:

No, we don't need to 'admit' that. There are kids who can be intimidated by fear and some who can't. Does that mean the program 'helped' those who are more vulnerable to conditioning? That it 'helped' those who went in with a weaker will than others? I don't think so.  :roll:
