An open discussion about the troubled parent industry

On your note about running away, in some states, there is a fine line as to whether or not this is illegal, it just depends on who knows more about the law.  

Just like in California you can't have a WWASP program because there are laws about keeping children/persons against their will, which other states should follow.  However, on the other end of the spectrum, how many kids would know that law enough to protest being placed in a private school here in California?  Makes you wonder.

I always loved the saying "you know just enough to be dangerous".  It was always mean't as a bad thing in my house, but as I grew older, I learned better.

Zen

With respect to these guys moving from program to program, when it's brought up by ex-program parents, and some who still have their kids in, someone generally jumps in with "this is normal and not to question it."  I love it that WWASP treats the parents like the children when it comes to asking "why".  Meanwhile, people generally go along with this type of mentality because they are, in effect, affraid to rock to boat.  Guess it all goes back to that breaking down the mind, body, and spirit, that Premier appears to promote through their seminars.  But that's just my opinion.

I would like to know why this bastard got away with this for so long, at several different schools.

Violence is never the answer.  Change the system, stop the violence.

I know I am new to this site, however, I am on other sites where posts can be moved, a notation is made in the old Forum, the title remains, it just says it's been moved, and no one has a problem with that.  

I have a problem when someone comes in and starts to "moderate" the body of my posts, removing words or phrases, or re-phrasing what I have typed, which REALLY pisses me off.  Frankly, I could thank them many times for moving threads from the wrong forms.  It just keeps it simple to follow, and easy access for all.

If I post a new thread that would much better reside in another Forum, I have given Psy my expressed consent to move anything of mine to the appropriate Forum.  No biggy.  This could be something that might be impletemented when new people sign onto Fornits.  A box at the bottom accepting those terms that, althought that particular site is not moderated, threads may be moved for purposes of convenience or content.  Just trying to come up with some alternative ideas so as not to offend.

FYI: You don't have to be married to be pregnant or have a child.

Alright, I am done preaching to the masses.   Deb has clearly re-stated what's been being said over and over again, enough said.

Good idea in my opinion.  I don't see moving it as moderating.  Moderating would be choosing to change the context of the text written.  All that is being posed here is to move the threads to the proper forum.  It has nothing to do with anyone's freedom of speech, it changes nothing submitted, only the place where it will best be suited, easily obtainable, and stop hindering search time having to jump back and forth.  However, if people posted in the proper Forum to begin with, this subject would be moot.
