I have been informed that one of the reasons for the death of this young boy was from a broken collar bone that had pinch a main artery, and that there was other things involved but could not be disclosed yet.  If all this is true than we need to do something about these people. :flame:  :flame:  :flame:  :mad:  :mad:  :mad:  :sad:  :sad:  :sad:  :sad:  :sad:  :sad:  :sad:

Why is it that the only people we get who got sent to a program that praise the programs are people who have been out for less than five years or work for a program as staff?

If you didn't say you were doing wonderfully and would be happy to go back and talk about how wonderful they are---you might get sent back.  Because you're still a minor.

It's okay.  We've talked to a lot of adults who got sent to programs as teens who, while they were in the program or at home and still minors, talked up how good the program was and how it had "turned them around."  We've talked to a lot of adults who  on some level really believed it, too---until they got to be legal adults and couldn't be sent back and started coping with the PTSD.

Maybe you're for real.  More likely you're saying what's expected of you to keep from getting sent back.

If I'm wrong about that, come back in five years and tell me I was wrong.  I won't believe you now, but as long as you're not staff somewhere I will believe what you say then about your experiences at Thayer---whatever it is that you feel the need to say then, good or bad.

Broken bones and lack of treatment are part of the problem with this industry. Like I've said many times before - the children in these programs are treated worse than dogs.  They are treated with harshness and contempt.  This boy probably had his clavical broken in a take down and went without treatment.  This happens all of the time.  They don't want to take the children to the emergency room because the broken bones are a red flag for abuse and need to be reported to CPS and the authorities.  
When an innocent Californian millionaire gets killed by a drug squad
trying to seize his house with a bogus search warrant, people better ask themselves if they really want to turn their cops into money-makers.

"Maybe... It is Bundys. But you are really missing the point aren't you? Well, that really says something! "  

I'm not missing the point, I'm making one.  Not only are the kids physically abused they are also mentally abused.  The education system at TLC is aweful.  I know...I worked there for a very, very short time.

I heard the same thing.  Something about a broken collar bone that somehow caused an aneurysm.  Although this is hearsay, it could possibly be true.  The autopsy won't be released to the public because the child was a minor and medical records are private.  Does anyone know how we can verify the cause of death?
