Remember what assume means right?
Why is being disrespectful characterizable as an emergency situation? You're not supposed to be robotically obedient. Not when you're a kid, a teen, or an adult. If you are, your life is going to be hard
And, what defines "disrespectful" is so subjective....Why not institutionalize people for being annoying, while we're at it?
Highschool, grades 9 thru 12.
If abuse occurs in our school district the kid tells the parent. The parent tells the principle/police and the principle sends letters out to all the parents updating them on what has occurred and action taken. Most private schools follow the same procedures. The staff member or teacher themselves who committed the offense isnt going to notify anyone except from jail.
QuoteMany girls who get out of the program do get pregnant as soon as possible as a way to avoid ever having to go back to the program. They know they have a policy against taking in pregnant girls. Of course they wouldn't even have a GED, I'm sure they were not allowed an education while in the program. But the question was, why did the parents pull the children? What kind of abuse had those children and or parents suffered?
This is a boarding school the kids are in so they were getting an education. As far as why they left, I dont have the specific reasons why. I do know that it is very hard work for some of the kids and some would rather opt out then to finish the program. Some of them plead with their parents and they give in and remove them. As far as abuse, I have never been aware of a staff member abusing a child there, this never occurred during the time my daughter attended. I am sure if it did occur the families would be notified of the action taken.

Nope. My kids are great people. I only reserve that tone for program shills, as that's how I was taught to relate to people while I was incarcerated in Straight. That's how most kids are spoken to in programs. Gotta break 'em down before you can build 'em back up, right?
QuoteWhy not ask to speak to the other half of the parents who pulled their children out, and find out their viewpoints? Thereby giving yourself a more BALANCED view of the program.
I try to keep in touch the best I can to see how others are doing.
There were 4 parents I know of that pulled there kids. 2 of them them their kids got pregnant, single moms, within a year of leaving without even a GED ages 16 and 15 (?). A boy who was replaced into another program within 6 months of leaving (lost touch), up in Maine somewhere. The 4th I never heard from again.
