Hahaha..yeah make them do all the mataphors who all had to do..like for one girl carring a bag of rocks around..they could do that while they shovel the horse shit..lol :lol:

Well thank you for responding back honesty. I guess I didn't explain the money things very well.
First of all I didn't pay for the school my parents did, and were talking about an amount that could buy a house about $160,000. If you were my parents, and you paid all that money for me to get properly "medicated", and then I came out even more messed up, it wouldn't be something that you could just brush off. My parents were extremely angry with me, and even to this day we have problems and it's stems from way back then.

We never turlly discussed this entire MMS issue because I did not want to tell them that they had spent all that money for nothing. But now these recent times i've thought about it, and they deserve to know- and they deserve get that money back. I do not want them to feel the way they do towards me as if I am ungrateful . The fact that they used all that money on me, and it was rather useless, puts me in a position with them. Makes me look like the bad guy..and it has for about 5 years. I have 2 children now that my parents hardly visit, and it all stems from the whole issue...."I tried to help my daughter, I sent her away to a great program, I spent a great deal of money, and she doesn't even change. This is how she repays us?"
I think I would hold a grudge towards someone if I was willing to spend $160,000 help them, and they were never "willing" to be helped at all (thats what mission mountain school made it seem like). That is not the whole reality at all. What I described on my previous post is the truth. My family should not be going through all of these troubles. I believe that all of these matters needs to be resolved, and when they do it will be a hell a lof better for us. They could use that money towards something else..make them happy..and I will no longer be pointed out as the bad guy.
And I am sure the would be more willing to help me out now knowing the entire truth, but in the mantime they will continue to seperate themselves from me. and it can not be just handled with a simple conversation as to why I didn't chnage at that point time. They need to hear it from other people as well from profeesionals like lawyers etc.  

This not even the entire reason for the lawsuit, but it defenetly one of them. I just want to let you know that I was someone who was greatly punished at MMS, and the reason for my punishment wasn't even acknowledged to me (I can not tell you what it was because it would automatically reveal me) but just believe me when I tell you it was extremly unfair!

Also..I am starting to hate this whole abuse business. I am not claiming that I was abused daily or that anyone was abused on a daily basis. My story is a little different though, like i said. But when looking at the whole school in general I wouldn not call abusive either...it's something deeper..I would rather use something more like manipulative. This lawsuit is not all about abuse..somewhere along the line it got twisted around as that..it's what's right from wrong.I t's what didn't happen that should have happened, or what did, but shouldn't of. It's truths verses false. It's laws, or broken laws. It's the entire principle of things. it's a doctor claiming to be a doctor, but not actuaaly being one.

Let's not look at it from an "abusive" perspective there's to many measurements to abuse.

Star,  

   I give you a lot of credit for what you have written here and every where else. It's extremely helpful to me because I am a bit unsure about where to go on all of this. You've put my thoughts in words, and thank God someone can express themselves like you!

The school could also change for the better and I would love to be involved in that. I am greatly interested in helping other people. I wish the school would work around "helping others helps you." I would have loved to do some charity work while I was there. I would have loved to be able to work with people less fortunate than myself, rather than always focusing on my issues. There are so many other useful ways to helps girls/and boys that does not have to revolve around extreme therapy-phsycho bable. Girls could have had more time to express themselves through their greatest interests. I was great at soccer, and I wish the school could have helped me persue that dream even further. The school could have taken a trip to a distant place, like South America, as an eye opener. They could run charities and other events. Instead of always focusing on the pasts they could have shown us girls how to embrace all parts of life so we could always have some where to turn to. Being focused on our problems didn't seem to always help. Therapy does not actually have to be therapy as in "talking about it". For me therapy is enjoying life and loving every aspect. Everything does not have to be analyzed..even a ski trip. I needed to learn how to love, and loving myself was most important. When I had fun at mms I felt like that too had to be analyzed. "just let it be, let everything, be", you don't need an explanation for everything.


This is another reason for the lawsuit..to make the school change for the better if possible..if John accepts it. What do you think you would do to change the school for the better?..all of your ideas could be added when the suit is filed.
