What about "Carlbrook School"?

Stating the obvious here but......Cuz that's what they're taught to do. Peer counseling dontchaknow.

I said that because if you really were abused, then only a professional can help guide you through that pain, not some fucking kids, many of which are bias in the sense that they also feel they were abused. You guys need to learn some psych for fuck sake. I was just urging people to find an objective point of view, not my own, or anyone else in this forum. An objective professional who has been trained to navigate through people's issues (not a carlbrook staff, but a completely unaffiliated entity that you trust). But obviously seems like a lot of you don't want to do that.

Hmmmm, but the programs are always telling us that "kids can help kids". That pesky "peer counseling/therapeutic community" thing again.

Holding the opinion that you were abused makes you biased? Why would that not apply to the converse?

Many of us have....and it's a good suggestion but....we've also found that being able to talk to others who went thru the same or similar places was as helpful, if not more because someone who has actually been thru the programs knows what happens behind closed doors.
