098 Inside the Troubled Teen Industry: Kidnapped to Be ‘Fixed’

We trace Danielle’s story from a 4 a.m. transport to months of wilderness deprivation and a residential system built on points, punishments, and public shaming. She explains how marketing misleads parents, how oversight fails, and what real help should look like.

• early trauma, mental health struggles, and family strain
• the transport experience and intake violations
• isolation tactics, survival rules, and “solo” in wilderness
• engineered conflict and letters used for group shaming
• point systems, “subsystem,” and the hot seat
• staff cruelty, restraints, and lack of regulation
• rebrands, shutdowns, and ongoing operations
• long-term aftermath, trust issues, and recovery
• practical advice for parents and website red flags
• survivor advocacy, evidence gathering, and accountability
