I was forced to walk over 100 miles in three days because I was a level 3 and a level 4 said I argued with him. They called that a therapeutic hike or desert walk, known by students as a death march. They read your mail if they want to and open it before it gets to you. they put you in a circle for the first three days after your arrival, where you are not allowed to talk to people or leave. You can't wash or change, you are told that if you set a foot outside of the circle without asking staff that they will tackle you, then they bragged about the students they tackled and how they have to fill out a report a special way to make what they did legal. I smiled on the third day ( because it was the last day in a circle) and they said i had to stay another day because of talking, and 75% of talking is expressions. And when i submitted a grievance report (for something else) they put me back in the circle until I dropped it. For a total of 14 days sitting in the circle during my stay as a level 1 and 2 out of 22 days there (that was the first section of the 100 day program) in the second part you become a level three and the student "leaders" are level 4's. This stage is at the barn where you get a bed with a mattress, ( level one sleeps on a plywood matt level two gets a plywood bed with a camping matt on it) level three's and four's have bunk beds with a mattress, and if your good, a pillow.

Subject:JUSTICE FOR TEENS
I was one of the lucky few to be sent away, against my will, to a Residental Treatment Center in Utah for almost 2 years. And you want to know the best part? I just had some anger problems and was getting 3 D's in school. And, at the time and growth of my teenage life, wasn't very fond of my parents. Aren't we all? I have never done drugs or any of that sort, had any sexual problems or self harm problems. To this day, they kept me because they said i was lying. So they kept me longer, taking away our money and making up fake assumptions of mind games and problems i had that had nothing to do with me. I later leave and return home, after fighting of being sent away AGAIN for another year until i turned 18, and became angry as ever. Though i know my parents meant well, that's not something you do to a non broken teen. if you want to help your child, you work with them. you don't send them away so they can be someone else's problem. the last thing that god damn school said to both my parents was, "you can have her back now. She's all fixed." If you are appauled by my story, don't send your child to any RTC of any sort. They have more problems then where they started in the beginning. I now cannot sleep at night, don't have a regular diet and have a hard time dealing with my parents in any given situation. I am also almost 20 years old and forever have to deal with the fact that this happened to me. best part is i didn't even tell you the details..

Subject:Getting daughter back
Hi, I am planning on rescueing my daughter this week from a treatment facility. I have to wait for plane availability. I am so mad at myself for trusting my consultant. She has lied to us, falsified information on contracts to the insurance. Told me she had her psychiatrist write a paper and wording it so my daughter would get admitted to this particular facility. Then she dissappeared. She sent our papers back and left the case. The entire story of the place changes once my daughter was there. They make her pray to God and give her problem to God to cure. I can't contact her and have forced them to allow a conversation on phone or I would pull her out. They have staff stand in front of her during talk. She cried the entire time. She has to use the bathroom in front of the staff. They have to even watch her wipe. They tell me this is for her safety. I do not want to loose my daughter I love. She has been there 2 weeks, too long. She has not seen a psychiatrist, she suffers from a mood disorder among other things. She called a girl an inmature baby and was punished for 4 hours in a chair with staff at her feet so she couldn't stand. They said it was name calling and she had to have a consequence. She can't show her arms or legs, they have to be covered for modesty. She told me they are pushing the Mormon religion on her. They say they have freedom of religion, she does not have to listen if it bothers her. She also has freedoms, that is why I have to get her back. I hope it won't be a horror show, but I am prepared. Her father is not coming, just myself.
