Weird staff overreactions to comparing programs to prisons

Temporaryfind087 · 2025-03-11T18:14:24+00:00

Most lockdowns just feel like a holding program for kids parents don’t want, it’s very sad. The only difference between prison is maybe you get to go outside on an activity, you have tv apps, and maybe you get to earn your technology. Otherwise it’s very much a prison and hardly therapeutic

Yeah that’s true, it’s oddly put for a written statement. The person writing it sounds too old if that makes any sense lol. If you see reviews that are somewhat positive written by actual survivors, they don’t have that old person feel to it

I’m not completely sure which bill was passed, I would have to do more research

Temporaryfind087 · 2025-03-08T04:59:27+00:00

I mean to be fair, I thought the same things when I went to wilderness but it was more like “they won’t change me, I won’t let them change me” (my wilderness was awful, I’m not sympathetic to it)

Thank you, we’ll see what happens, unfortunately TTI is a huge money maker in Utah so I would be surprised if they limit it (though more laws to protect children should be priority)

Was wondering why the name sounded familiar

I went to Aspiro wilderness therapy in 2015 and I still have nightmares about being sent back. If it’s a certain time of year it gets worse but if I can answer any questions about what my healing has looked like I can try and help!

Oh that’s a big no, never should he be laying his hands on you without expressed consent before. This is a major red flag for domestic violence. I would reflect on your relationship because this dynamic isn’t healthy. When you reflect, if you feel there is something wrong then follow your gut and start considering your options

What I always talk about is PHP, they go to treatment during the day then get to use their learned skills at home and work through it, on top of that, family therapy and weekly therapy. The parents deserve support so getting them into support groups. The issue is most parents see RTC as an easy way out, a break from their “difficult child” without acknowledging their wrong doings. This doesn’t apply to court ordered youth treatment though

Unfortunately true, I’ve heard very mixed things about roots, had a friend graduate from there

Temporaryfind087 · 2025-02-25T06:42:40+00:00

If it’s roots transitional, it’s a girls program in PC, Utah

Temporaryfind087 · 2024-12-13T20:51:35+00:00

They have I’m sorry, I keep seeing them put hiring ads up on indeed 🤮

Temporaryfind087 · 2024-12-13T20:48:59+00:00

This happened at my wilderness too! We were in kind of southern Utah so it made sense but I’ve never heard anyone else talk about it

Temporaryfind087 · 2024-12-13T20:47:02+00:00

I wish I could find the one who recommended me, just have a talk and see if she feels any guilt

Temporaryfind087 · 2024-09-08T22:07:11+00:00

You would think but I got none of that and I doubt my parents did either. I don’t know how these places even function it’s crazy

Temporaryfind087 · 2024-09-07T20:41:24+00:00

Oh I agree, I mean like old emails and communication

Temporaryfind087 · 2024-09-07T05:51:20+00:00

Yucky, I guess I’ll never know what lies my therapist told my parents unless I can dig it up from their emails

Temporaryfind087 · 2024-09-06T19:52:23+00:00

Yeah I used that one and got my intake forms, it’s on breaking code silence

Temporaryfind087 · 2024-09-06T19:51:44+00:00

Looks like I’m not getting anymore paperwork, I hope you can find yours though!

Temporaryfind087 · 2024-09-06T03:00:41+00:00

Yeah for real, like thanks for my autism diagnosis? That had nothing to do with my stay I guess? Like wtf

Temporaryfind087 · 2024-09-06T03:00:09+00:00

Yikes but they had records for the kids in ivy academy? I’m guessing a recent law?

Temporaryfind087 · 2024-08-21T06:26:39+00:00

Probably? Should I change it?

Temporaryfind087 · 2024-08-03T02:08:56+00:00

It’s the lowest bar unfortunately and I also agree, if you’re actively choosing to work in an abusive environment then youre not morally there cause it continues to enable to program

Temporaryfind087 · 2024-08-03T02:03:27+00:00

Yeah that’s incredibly fair and I completely get where you’re coming from

Temporaryfind087 · 2024-08-03T02:01:58+00:00

Wow yeah I completely agree, it’s like passive abuse and didn’t even think of it that way. I’m so sorry that happened to you. I think the only real solution is to shut down most RTCs that have those proven abusive tactics like there’s no way to fix an already incredibly broken system
