[QUOTE="totoro, post: 75660, member: 3155"] When husband and I were first getting K diagnosis'd and had not yet found this place... we watched a special on one of the news shows about this School. I started to cry watching it, I could not imagine doing this to K... at the time she was so violent and raging for hours... The parents interviewed were fiercely loyal to the school, but some of the past parents and teachers voiced huge concerns over the practices. Basically felt like they were scaring the kids so bad they would not commit the acts again... fear/pain based treatment??? It is like a shock collar worn around the waist! Some of the teachers said it was being used very inappropiately as well, who is the the person that monitors all of this and decides when and how??? And honestly are they watching 24/7??? That was what the parents who felt it was horrible had to say. The founder of the school made a very good arguement when listening to him... but after seing the kids and listening to the parents. I just don't don't think I could do that. It would take a lot more postives... Thanks Sheila [/QUOTE]
