What the heck is a residential treatment school? Summer camp for suicidal kids?
it's part of the whole troubled teen industry
“Behavior reform schools” aka places parents ship their kids off too when they don’t know how to parent their kid with behavioral issues. Then those facilities psychologically and sometimes physically torment these kids until they learn to “behave”.
actual it's worse because target the most basic of problems that any adolescent could have
"Low self-esteem and identity struggles" "Difficulty trusting or connecting with others" "Trouble making and maintaining friendships" "Family, peer, and social conflicts"
