Treatment Abuse, Behavior Modification, Thought Reform > Who Am I Discovery/Whitmore

Another Speaks Up to ISAC--- Who Will Speak Next?

<< < (2/4) > >>

Read the list carefully, and Whitmore can be checked off on all except 3 from my viewpoint. Puts it right up there---way past POTENTIALLY ABUSIVE!!! Parents who still have kids at Whitmore need to check this list, and check their kids OUT OF THERE! No one can read this and not be honestly concerned if they have a child there.

I read Gramma's letter. Not too effective. She states the facts (as she sees them) but the whole thing oozes with self guilt over not being able to control her family. I hope she gets over it. Nothing bad was done to her granddaughter at Whitmore except whatever home experience she had before being sent away.

Antigen:
Wow! Oozes w/ guilt? I think you're reading a lot more into that than what's there.

At some point, I hope someone is also legally able to attest to the fact of all the threats and intimidation that seems to attend any kid who says anything less than glowing about the Whitmore. Honestly, that's just about most alarming part of the whole story to my way of thinking. Anybody want to call me on that? Ive got the content and the server logs, but no legally compelling reason to demand the identities of the authors from their respective ISPs.

As to ISAC's warning list, don't make more or less of it than what it is. It's not scientifically based or anything. It's just a mix of common sense and personal experience written by program survivors. I don't think they present it as anything other than what it is. But I think you may be taking it that way. It's just food for thought.



I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own -- a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty. Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body, although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotism.

Exactly what planet are you from?  Didn't get that impression at all.  Obviously you are not a parent.  Any parent who reads this would be very alarmed.  I only see many of the same things that were done to my child.  There were bad things done to Leah and my child saw it! My child told the same stories Leah did and they had not talked to each other for months!  Coincidence?  I don't think so.

Joyce Harris:
Anon, what could be more effective, you seeing it with your own eyes? I don't think Leah's "home experiences" were 'spitting in her face...putting her in isolation, cursing her, hitting...inadequately feeding, educating, or failing to offer her therapy that was paid for.'
Doesn't seem to me her grandmother has anything to feel guilty about. If anyone should be feeling a burden of guilt, it should be the Sudweeks, and perhaps people like you who seem to lack an ounce of compassion for the pain and suffering of others.
