It's also not just boarding schools either. It's a problem in psychiatric behavioral hospitals as well. I was in and out of them since I had a troubled childhood, and the schools at all except one of them were pretty much three hours of lessons a day. Only one teacher out of all of them ever engaged with us, for the rest it was follow the lesson in the book. Can't figure it out? Tough shit, you fail for the day.

Right?!? I had the same experience. A few (2 max) hours with some random worksheets was “school”

I actually just received my medical records from the psychiatric hospital I went to 5 years ago. They completely falsified my statements to extend my stay. The utter cruelty I witnessed and experienced is going to stay with me for the rest of my life. We need psych reform so, so badly.

I found out my psych used an emergency order to block my dad from contacting me and then lied to both my and my mom's face about it. My mother was absolutely adamant that my dad was able to contact his son since he lived on the other side of the Atlantic at the time
