This was actually standard at my highschool too... I feel terrible for the kids that experience these types of camps. I also feel terrible that so many people assume to understand life and will manipulate other vulnerable forms of life to correspond to their delusions. | ||

It sounds like a synpsis of a wierd book, not something that could happen in this day and age. Found this link from 5 years ago that talks about a class action law suit. Wonder if anything happened http://www.webwire.com/ViewPressRel.asp?aId=22096 | ||

Any suggestions? It should be something short and catchy that describes the simplicity of the extrapolations. Maybe we can call them "Wag the Dog Threads." I kinda like it.

Some people still deny evolution, too. It's obvious such people don't want to have their eyes open, so there is no point to offering facts or evidence. Like trolls on the internet, they are better off ignored. | ||

I come to this forum and read alot of shocking things. This kind of story makes me thankful to be Canadian even more. Honestly i'm not sure what's worse. The children being mentally tortured or the full grown adults that can justify what they are doing is moral... (I mean who the fuck wants to tackle a child to restrain them... If I saw a child being abused by a grown man regardless of the situation I would have Super Sayen rage flowing through me...) I can't even imagine being in that poor girls shoes. The first poster is right. This is probably the most legitimate way I can see myself being a serial killer. I just hope that the future americans will incinerate this kind of garbage product of society... The attitude it takes to be a part of this kind of insitution... It's just freightening.... down right insanity... | ||

What i found weird though is that the girl that writes this account somehow seems to still try to defend the people at that "school", tries to mitigate what she is describing, while if it was me i would want to kill all the bastards...lingering effect of what they did to her? | ||

Q. How do I get my child to agree to come there? Each situation is different, Some students will come voluntarily others need a bit of persuasion. We will help you determine what is best for your child. (The decision is yours not theirs) Yep. This sounds like something from a bad horror movie. It's pretty hard to not get mad at religion when you hear things like this (the girl has said in reddit posts that she only mentioned the program was Mormon because it wasn't advertised as such) but I absolutely can't stand the belief that homosexuality is a learned behaviour that can, and should, be beaten out of you. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + Frequently ask questions Q. How quickly can I have my teen enrolled? Some families need to work within a tight time frame and in most cases that can be accommodated. The minimum is 24 hours. Q. Are there any financial aid or assistance programs available? There is no assistance available at the present time, however we have listed some suggestion under the financial section. Occasionally medical insurances will pay for portions of the program. Q. Is enrollment open or are there specific times of the year to enroll my teen? A teen may enter the program any day of the year. The program is year round and academics is year round and self-paced. Q. Can my teen run away? Both the programs have a secure campus. The key pad system we use allows us to keep the students in and strangers out. Q. How often are visits allowed? Visits are allowed when the teen reaches the appropriate level as an earned privilege. Q. How many teens sleep in a room? Four to six depending on the room. Q. How long do the teens stay? It is recommended that the teen stay for 1 year giving the teen enough time to incorporate the changes they have made. Each teen progresses at a different pace. Q. How is the family involved in the student's program? Each teen is assigned a family representative that is in contact with your teen throughout the day. Weekly phone calls are made updating your teens progress. In time, therapeutic phone calls are made for the purpose of working out family issues. Parents and teens communicate by letter as often as they like. A series of self-growth seminars that are nearly identical to the ones the teen participates in, is provided for the parents in two locations in the country (Las Vegas, NV and Atlanta, GA). Q. What is your success rate with these programs? This is a hard number to track, ever parent had a different definition of success for their student. We do have many families who stay involved with us and who just occasionally drop by and/or call. If you would like to talk to a parent who has a teen currently in one of these programs or has a teen who has graduated, we would be happy to provide you with names and numbers. The names and numbers range from current to 15 years ago, and all in between. Q. How do I get my child to agree to come there? Each situation is different, Some students will come voluntarily others need a bit of persuasion. We will help you determine what is best for your child. (The decision is yours not theirs) Religion is like a Penis. It's ok to have one, it's ok to be proud of it, but pulling it out in public and trying to jam it down people's throats won't get you in there good books. THAT'S IT. I'M FUCKING TIRED OF THESE FUCKED UP PEOPLE IN AMERICA I'M MOVING TO FRANCE ASAP GODDAMNIT. | ||

But rather the extremist "Evangelical/Morman" Point of view. I have seen many just insanely shocking things from these kinds of people. That's why this is actually believable. I mean these are the kinds of people that try to justify what they are doing with "God" but are so ironically hypocrites about how they view life it's sickening. I'm actually sick to my stomach. If I had a choice right now, pay 10 thousand dollars, and erase all of this type of activity from existence. I wouldn't even hesitate. I'd give that money and sleep happily forever. What's so ironic to me, is how these people use the term evil.... When I would call them and their words to be true evil. P.S. Move to Canada it's closer. Guaranteed permanent stay + membership. | ||
