i am not a staff or parent posing as a student. my name is Casey Greg Marvins and you can feel free to e-mail me at marvinsc@southwestern.edu if you actually want to talk about the truth about Carlbrook School. i have spent time in the real world and it did save my life. i can say that for certain. i do not appreciate this forum, even though you are protected under the right of free speech, so am i. if you hate the place so much, then keep it to yourself and let other people decide whether they like it or not, and if it helps them or not. i am not mentally unstable, and i will admit that i overreacted.

Mr. Paperclip
When you said, "talk about the truth about Carlbrook School," are you implying that the information we have provided is not valid? Perhaps you didn't read my posts carefully because I can ensure you that everything I have stated at least is factual information. In addition, I have taken the time to list the many dislikes of Carlbrook and I resent how you believe that you can denounce and nullify my arguments based upon your own opinion alone. I am not disagreeing that you did not better yourself while residing at Carlbrook, but I am arguing that your experience does not match many others. In addition, I doubt it was Carlbrook that helped you with your problems but probably the fulfillment of the desperation you felt, sometimes caused by Carlbrook itself. In many cases, people who attend such programs will sway to another outlook on life and another way to conduct themselves. For example, shy people will become aggressive and outspoken people will become scared to speak. I was shy at first when I attended Carlbrook but eventually shared my opinions. I was treated like a criminal and barred from the rest of the community, placed in suspension and action plans too, only because my opinions did not match the Carlbrook ideology. As they presented it to me in my amicitia, someone was left out of the circle. But actually, it was the circle that was being blind sighted by the manipulation of direction itself. The person outside the circle had escaped the manipulation and was urging others to see the truth. But they were too caught up in this illusion. They wanted to prosper in the Carlbrook community, but failed to see the bigger picture of life itself. These people in the circle would then walk side by side in a fake happiness to be presented to the rest of the community as being reborn. They were no longer contaminated and were now functioning students of the community. I was the kid left outside the circle. And even though I agreed to let them bring me back in, I only did it to avoid further torment of suspension and undeserved punishment. I still have nightmares of Carlbrook almost every night. Even though I finally left the awful place, it still haunts me. That is why I try to regurgitate my experience. You may see it as manipulation on my part Mr. Marvins, but I speak from my heart. Carlbrook has manipulated everyone, even you, whether you are willing to admit it or not. Why should they be the only ones that get to speak on the matter? Why should opposition be ignored? But of course, we must not challenge Carlbrook.

It's very clear that you don't want to talk about the truth that includes a perspective other than your own. Enough of Who you are is apparent in the one sided conversation you're proposing.

It sounds as if you’ve used the subjective term real world to describe a place you’d rather not visit again.

Yeah we the people… It’s nice to have the constitutional rights out here in the real world that weren’t allowed in the program.

Other people have decided they don’t like the abuses they received from Carlbrook and they’re not going to "keep it to themselves" because they’re free now.

It’s always very reassuring when someone announces they are mentally stable
