Military schools are education institutions designed to train students in Military arts and sciences. Military Schools have long been considered for providing discipline, hard work, and teamwork, to stressed or apathetic youth. The public school system of today is not fully prepared to handle troubled teenagers. Often times, parents turn to military schools as an option to discipline and educate their troubled teenagers. Military Schools are able most of the time to deliver a much better academic program than conventional public schools are able to offer.

When deciding if a military school is the most appropriate choice for a troubled adolescent, parents need to look past their aggravation and anger and honestly ask themselves what the fundamental issue might be. Although angry, frustrated parents might feel a sense of justification by sending a child to military school, it is important for the parents to ask them if this is the right solution for their adolescent.

In these military schools teenagers learn constitution and regulation through the strict schedule and stress on cooperation found within a military school setting. This type of environment can be very beneficial for teens in need of family help. Military schools are helpful for students who are struggling in traditional schools who have mild problems. Good academics, discipline and structure. Children with behavioral problems need focused, individualized treatment so as to help them develop the skills and strategy necessary to grow and mature into responsible adults .They use military exercises, rigorous physical training, and fear of power to transform a troubled teen into a “good soldier” who follows rules.

Military Schools are not designed to deal with teens in disaster and therefore internalization which is a critical component needed for making long lasting changes is often neglected. Parents may needlessly delay essential interventions because they think the military-style discipline is giving their teen help when it is not actually commerce with the issues that cause his or her behavior.

Military boarding schools lie somewhere between traditional boarding schools and healing boarding schools. These schools have been around for generations, and one might even look at them as some of the first programs design to intervene when teens were out of control, failing school, or disrupting family life.

These military schools do not stress therapy. They do not deal with emotional issues that underlie many adolescent behavioral problems. They highlight discipline and strict control. They resemble jails more than therapeutic intervention.

A military school will hold troubled teens accountable. Teens learn tremendous life skills, often out of doors and they learn to trust and feel part of. Their self-esteem improves and before long they have a new attitude. There is so much more, too, that a good military school will offer troubled teens.

Parents - how can you conduct a "search" without physically touching the child?

I don't think children are "touched" at Ridge Creek school during strip searches.  Strip searches are done correctly to ensure the child's safety at Ridge Creek School.

Many programs do strip searches to keep other children safe.  For example, a child could smuggle in a weapon to harm staff or another child.  Preventing children from carrying weapons is a positive, not a negative.

Boot Camps: Children's Gulags or Child Abuse for Fun and Pro

Postby DannyB II » Today, 02:03
This is a very interesting thread the owner of Orange Papers put together to speak of the abuses at "Boot Camps".

The author of "Orange  Papers" is paid by activists to write false articles about programs that help troubled teens.

The Boy Scout boot camp has always been a good program that helps disgruntled children.  Staff receive good training and work well together.  This story sounds fabricated to me.

Boot camps build character in "troubled teens" who are violent, skip school, drink, do drugs and don't want to help themselves.
