:cool: I know full well what Thayer is like. What you seem unable to accept is that this is just what he needed. He confirms this to me.

No wonder you're so skittish about using your real name. I ask again, though I don't really expect a straight answer from you at this point, why didn't you just kick his ass and ride him like a psycho drill seargent yourself? Is it because you havn't got the stomach for the violence? Because you know it's criminal child abuse and you were afraid of facing the legal consequences? Because you're just too lazzy to do it yourself when you could pay strangers to do it for you?
What is the reason to hire the people at Thayer to rough up your kid for you? What do they do there that you couldn't do yourself?

I just happened to read this thread,looking for some info on a related topic: congrats on your kid doing well, I went thru a similar thing with a kid in a different school that these board-rats bash a lot---same outcome as yours interestingly enough, my kid is in an advanced college program, loves us, thanks us for sending him, the future is his---and ours.
Just blow these losers off, Nemo, that's what I do. Sure they'll bash any program that stops a kid from acting on every dangerous self-defeating impulse, cuz that's what these characters do, how they live, by and large, check it out by just reading their stories.
I mean it's easier to blame a program than admit what a mess you've made of your life. Self-justification: that's what this board is about, from Antigen the ancient pothead and on down to the membership in all its antisocial glory.
Also just blow off the lunatic who sent your post to Missouri Family Services---this lunatic can't read, I guess, since your kid is in college---not exactly Family Services material.
They must have been laughing at Devlin "Can't Spell Worth a Shit" Graves all day long over there in Missouri if he really did contact them (and it wasn't just an opium dream or hallucination or something), this school, it's a legal program folks---trust me--Family Services in Missouri has more pressing things to deal with.
Best thing in my opinion is to use this board for information, it's good for that sometimes at least (although you always have to double check it somewhere else to validate it cuz of the crazies here)
And if you want to be kind to answer parents who are sincerely in need of information or advice and post here it's good for addressing them too.
Your words won't help the others, they're lost, it'll take more than a stranger's words on a computer terminal before they turn their lives around. It' nice you want to help and be reasonable---but I don't think it's possible with most of the types that prowl around on Fornit's
But I agree it's good to stay anonymous when dealing with criminal/insane types.

No, I generally focus my attention on programs that kill kids, like Roberto Reyes, and those that torment kids, like so many who have been through WWASP programs and lived to tell about it.
How can you possibly defend people who kill children???
In any civilized society, it is every citizen's responsibility to obey just laws. But at the same time, it is every citizen's responsibility to disobey unjust laws.

SPEAKINGOUT:
some people- apparently YOU included just don't care what goes on at TLC, or other's like it. I have spoken with some of you- it's very sad. We are not crazy people- and you should be careful about broad statements like that. Most of us are caring parents who bought deception out of desperation to HELP our kids- we put them in harms way. We are trying to make a difference here- not just complain about the past- but change the future. NO DOUBT some kids need programs- but, they also need to be safe, non-abusive, and effective. There ARE SOME OUT THERE- I sent my son to one AFTER I rescued him from TLC. The Child Protective services would arrest any of us if we did any of these things to our kids that TLC did. But, they are somehow above the law. We are NOT going to sit back and take it, and this board is just ONE WAY we are SPEAKING OUT. We are not gonna stop until they- TLC and every other program that abuses and neglects kids is gone.
You, Nemo and the other "parents" that think that this treatment is ok have a problem. And, I use that term "parents" very loosley. Just because you make a child doesn't mean you are fit to be their parent.
We care about our kids, and your kids,and all the kids out there that are/or have been mistreated. That's what we are about- that's what we've always been about, and that's what we will always be about- so stop trying to make it about anything else!
