Looks like it. It's a shame that people don't understand-- or in some cases, don't care-- just how harmful the program is.
nite owl:
Many of the children in these programs suffer from depression. The brutal - tough love approach is not appropriate for depressed children. So they do not improve and post traumatic stress disorder is then added to their problem list. There are many casualties of these programs. Most of them were victims of inproper and inadequate treatment for depression. :skull:
When a religion is good, I conceive it will support itself; and when it does not support itself, and God does not take care to support it so that its professors are obliged to call for help of the civil power, 'tis a sign, I apprehend, of its being a bad one.

The brutal, tough-love approach is not appropriate for ANY children. No child deserves or needs the horrors and abuse of the program, no matter what their problem is.
Nihilanthic:
My heart goes out to that poor kid.
And yeah... I've yet to see any indication that the program is appropriate at all, for anyone. But oh well, when the people who own the programs make a big deal about how it removes all support from the kid and makes them feel totally helpless, and they go through that cultish, bullshit Gilcrease? "seminars", what do you expect?
I expect it to be awful. The milquetoast, STUPID parents that keep their kids in those programs without having had contact with their kid and having no idea what so ever what really goes on apparently expect miracles, and they sure as hell get a obedient kid, because they dont want to go back!
