Yes.  I am going on the assumption that not all therapeutic schools are bad.  However, I have not found one with a good solid reputation.  I think MBA sounds very similar to ASR in the way the kids are treated.  

Keep in mind that public school and many private schools cannot and do not provide what some students need.  I just have not found a school that I feel comfortable with.

We had a terrible experience there.  What has been others experience?  Did anyone find a school with good academics and a nurturing mutual respecting environment.  It seems most of these school are flawed.

It sounds like the teacher is just angry at the school.  But I had a child in ASR which is the east coast version of MBA and everything she says is true.  The size of the therapy groups are up to 20 or more.  Kids do all of the cleaning.  The staff is very disrespectful.  There is drug abuse going on.  Most of the kids are on challenges or self study.  All of the kids feel abandoned by the parents because you are not allowed to talk to them for so long and everything that was told to the parents is not true.  I'm sure not all experiences are bad but I would be very cautious about MBA and ASR.  They scare me.  At 6K to 7K a month parents and kids deserve better.

We are considering wisdom ranch.  I'd sure like to hear something about it.

They know that it is human nature to take up causes whereby a man may oppress his neighbor, no matter how unjustly. ... Hence they have had no trouble in finding men who would preach the damnability and heresy of the new doctrine from the very pulpit.
