Attack on the Freedom of speech

I got a email yesterday about a boarding school in Hurricane Utah where teenagers have died. Apparently they are now going after bloggers who have told the public about the deaths. They have attacked former students due to them telling how it was to go to school at this boarding school.

I am only asking. If every school could sue former students to keep them silence then we would still have evilness like Indian Schools where the children were beaten and denied the right to speak their native language.

This boarding school named Diamond Ranch Academy take in students against their will. Of course they are not happy being forced to live apart from their family. Why shouldn't they be allowed to tell their side of the story.

Of course I understand that they fear for their business. I am only saying: Then stop taking students in against their will! Take those in who might have an issue but are prepared to do something about it. They exist!

Having googled a little I found the school listed on a blog over 1,000 places you don't want to be as a teenager. It doesn't sound good. I found information about the two dead dudes. It doesn't sound good.

How can you expect anyone to be positive about this place?

And now they are targeting the Freedom of speech. I am stunned.

I hope they will close down tomorrow.

A Danish girl sent to a wilderness program in Utah

My son had to write an essay about this e-book novel: Janice's Journey

I find it odd the mother in this story didn't accept that her daughter had lived so many years in Denmark that the daughter was totally embraced in the Danish youth culture.

I can understand that the daughter’s actions and choice might be unacceptable taken into consideration that the mother lived at a place where kids are not allowed to have fun. But I don't understand why the mother wanted to change the future of the daughter. Danes don't have to outlive their potentials. They have a welfare system and they have a destiny based on their social heritage.

It is just an odd story.

Not another "Not without my daughter case"

I have been told by a friend that a girl from Louisiana could end up in the Middle East unless the court then decides to put her in a strict religious boarding school instead.

After having seen some webpages about the school I am not sure whether it would be better than being sent to the Middle East, being whipped and married away to a husband twice your age and then being knocked up with a child.

They are calling this ranch - Diamond Ranch Academy - the hell ranch.

It is a hard choice for the 17 year old Victoria - being thrown into the ashes or into the fire.
