O Programa: A Indústria dos Internatos Abusivos

I would absolutely rate this a 10 out of 10. Aside from the absolute cruelty that has happened and still happens to thousands upon thousands of teens, the filmmaker was extremely well prepared and this was an amazing portrayal of these particular cons, cults and kidnappings. I am very glad that she, along with the others in the documentary series, brought this issue to the fore. Investigative, emotional and riveting, throughout all three episodes. The storytelling was done very well, and as disturbing as it was, it really shines a light on these toxic and dangerous programs. I have a few ideas of how, as a group, we could try to shut these places down, so reach out to me if you'd like. I was a woman, I want to see these people pay for their evils. Thank you for bringing this issue to the public. These programs have been going on for far too long. I was born in the late 60s, and I remember some back then. Parents are also brainwashed into thinking these programs are good. These people are swindlers , sociopaths and con men. I want to see justice. This Netflix documentary will certainly do that.

I heard of this documentary on Joe Rogan's podcast #2148 when guest Gad Saad mentioned it. Fascinating and very disturbing that this has existed for so long and is still an industry today in 2024. The importance of this issue needs to reach as many people as possible. Perhaps Joe Rogan can have Katherine Kubler as a guest. Another criminal industry of child trafficking funded by the U. S. Government. How? Watch this documentary to learn how and be enraged. This three episode documentary is very well made. Katherine Kubler brings her survivor friends along this journey to tell the story of imprisonment, physical abuse and most importantly, life long lasting mental trauma. And, this is still going on today.

If you have ever wondered what being sent to a residential treatment center, Katherine Kubler encapsulates that feeling so accurately, I was transported back to my own experiences in the Troubled Teen Industry. This was so thoroughly researched and thought out. The connections between Synanon, WWASP programs and the Litchfield family and the LDS Church really show how complex and multifaceted this vile industry is. Thank you to the survivors who participated in the creation of this docuseries and to the people who worked tirelessly to make this happen. You will change lives with this. We are Unsilenced!

I think this was a pretty good show, but one thing I will say is this stuff goes on all over the U. S still till this day. I was in group homes and foster care from age of 9 until 18 and many went on a point system. Things kids are in those homes to get away from go on in those homes. I've physically fought staff members because I refused to be bullied. Staff members sleep with some of the kids sexually and all. It's crazy. They kicked me out when I turned 18 in an area hours away from my home town and I had to figure it out. I'm great now my own family, land, and home. They fail, I made it...

We don't have kids, so I can't truly put myself in the place of a parent, but I was absolutely stunned watching this latest docuseries from Netflix. It boggles the mind that parents could be so easily duped and willingly turn their teenagers, no matter how troubled, over to these grifters and malcontents. Compelling and riveting, the 3-episode series describes the psychological and physiological torture teenagers were put under in the name of helping them straighten out at a "behavioral modification" boarding school. But it's not just one school and it's still happening. I'm thinking about the show days after finishing and horrified that this type of child abuse happens way too frequently.
