There has been news regarding Paris Jackson, the daughter of the late king of pop, is being sent to an extremely abusive residential treatment facility Diamond Ranch Academy. Although she had had some issues and stress regarding the death of her father, she needs to be saved. A kid has already died in this facility, and they even force parents and legal guardians to sign away custody rights to the facility.

This girl was at an exclusive prep school and was even a cheerleader. I'm betting that the therapist and education consultants exposed her to the false advertising that DRA has on it's website to motivate her to go. This was even done on Dr. Drew. This is why Home treatment should be used to replace residential treatment. Even when they are in a facility in their home state, they're still in danger as monitored communication is used as a cover-up for child abuse and rape that goes on in these centers.
And some excellent news, Josh Shipp's show "Teen Trouble" on Lifetime Network HAS BEEN CANCELED! This was confirmed back in May (of this year of course) by A&E who owns Lifetime Network, that the show will not be renewed for a second season. The shows cancellation was primarily due to poor ratings that was probably due to abuse allegations of the facilities featured by Shipp, or controversy of how Shipp was approaching these kids. This is great news!
Now we have to reach out to Dr. Drew and Dr. Phil to stop featuring these abusive programs on their show's for entertainment.

The Story Behind Escaping Residential Facility Scam in 3 Months!
This is Goddess_of_Justice here to tell you about my time caught up in residential treatment scams and how I evaded more places where I could have ended up for the remainder of High School. If it wasn't for me realizing that it was a trap to milk my parents money, I would not have found the true preparatory boarding school that I settled on and graduated from (which I am grateful for). My parents at first thought this WAS the real deal like I did, until they got me back and were trying very hard not to make a mistake like that again.
So here is my story...
I had just turned 17 in the spring semester of my second year of High School (I was a late-starter) I was fed up with little improvement with my goals in my public high school. I was rejected from so many extra-curriculars that I loved and my grades began to slip as a result, I felt like a failure. I was not able to do and explore at my old high school. To top it all off, I had learning disorders that they never took seriously. So I wanted to go to a smaller private high school where I could do all those things I loved and thrive. This would get me off to a great start for college. I informed my parents about this and they said they would contact some education consultants to see what they can find. They were given brochures and looked up on some of the websites and found out that these prep schools had a no-cut policy in sports and fine arts and they offered great support in learning differences and ADHD. However the majority of them were "emotional growth" boarding schools a.k.a. residential treatment centers. I had no idea what they really were.

More red flags?
Oh yes, there are more red flags on which programs are abusive and fraudulent than the ones posted on WWASPS survivors or HEAL-online. What they don't tell you is telling the fraudulent programs marketed as boarding schools from real true boarding schools.
This most often happens when the child is struggling in the public schools and their parents want a better place for them. Most of the schools that are recommended are "therapeutic boarding schools" for troubled teens. This is because of what they claim to specialize in even though they're only for last resort placements when all other options fail. This makes them especially dangerous not only from the abusive staff, lack of medical care, and unsanitary living conditions, but violent kids that might take advantage of other kids and the staff again do nothing. What's worse is even many education consultants are being bribed to refer as many kids to these programs that they can hold to make even more money when they prolong their stay and possibly kill them by accident.

Petition to Josh Shipp and Lifetime Television Network
For those of you who don't know, there is a new show on Lifetime called "Teen Trouble" where quack psychologist Josh Shipp works with seriously disturbed teenagers and promotes these for-profit residential schools that are known for human rights violations and kids dying while being confined to these programs.
Josh Shipp is NOT a profession of any kind and was once a troubled kid himself, a hallmark of many staff who work for these programs. The methods these programs practice are NOT supported by scientific research and evidence. In face, these harm kids and "Quack Dr. Shipp" needs to know the truth!
There is a petition to let Lifetime and Josh Shipp know the truth behind these programs and demand to stop airing the show. It is also confusing and influencing parents with struggling kids about these programs and ignoring what their children REALLY NEED. It's hard enough to get the attention out to Dr. Phil and Dr. Drew who endorse Aspen Education Group, so lets let Lifetime know we mean serious business.
We need as much signatures on the petition as possible. Let your voice be heard!

New 'Teen Trouble' Show Markets Abusive Programs!
Lifetime Network is airing a new troubled teen reality show called "Teen Trouble" that's scheduled to go on the air sometime in 2013. The man running the show is Josh Ship. By the looks of it he is NOT a licensed psychologist or family councilor and is more like a younger version of Dr. Phil. In the episode preview, he works with a troubled kid and sends him away to an Aspen Program called "Outback Therapeutic Expedition". In other words, THIS IS A MARKETING TOOL FOR ABUSIVE PROGRAMS!. Sometime in the future there will be a petition promotion to demand Lifetime not to air this program because it's endorsing and marketing fraudulent programs that are a danger to the teens placed there. Plus the kid on this sampled episode needs REAL professional and government welfare services (if any exist under the Afordable Care Act)
I'm betting that it's Aspens way of lashing back after Mitt Romney who profits from them lost the recent election. So as a result, he can not give the edge to these programs and his trophy wife will not be able to work with troubled teens as she promised as First Lady.
