    This reminds me of a very extensive story I read about a truly awful for-profit facility called the Élan School. It was a long and harrowing read and it was pretty much too fucked up to be fake.

    That was probably way worse than what’s going on here, but reading about Elan made me realize that “wow there need to be a LOT of super strict checks on what we let people do with our children”

      I’ve just spent the last 3 days reading this off of your rec. It’s… wild. And then to follow it up by seeing this is just… too weird.

        Oh yeah it’s long. I was aghast the whole time, I’m pretty sure I’d be seriously fucked up more than I am now if I went to such a place.
