The fact that the school was open for almost 50 years and played it off like it was a good school until 2011 which wasn’t too long ago is crazy.

[@sifagayev7793]

These kinds of places are very much so still a thing. I was in a place like this in 2018 which is still running. No one gives a fuck about “problem children” being abused, and sadly, I think it will stay that way for some time.

[@iDeker]

@@iDeker I think that really good programs exist, but the issue is when the kids parents don’t have the financial ability/interest in getting their kid into a decent facility. At that point, the county takes over and sends them to whatever place is cheapest. And, like he said in the video, those kinds of places are much more interested in making money off people than actually helping them. One of the more fucked up things was staff strongly feeding into the newer kids misbehaving. Like, if someone was starting a fight, they’d add fuel to the fire in any way they could. Verbally, sometimes even physically… until they got the person in a position shitty enough to be written up over. That way, they can document that the kid entered the program displaying behavioral issues and left without them. They use this to get more funding/ look better, even though it’s rarely ever true. One time a kid who was in there for sexual abuse/trauma was having a panic attack and started freaking out. The staff fucking hated the kid and one of them basically goaded her into trying to run away. At which point he, a 200lb + man, tackled her and was lying on top of her as she screamed and cried, begging him to get off her, that he was triggering her. We listened to her scream for hours. I was there for 8 months and we had shit like that happening pretty much on a daily basis. Right before I got there a kid ran away and killed himself by jumping off a highway overpass. They get away with everything because the word of a drug addicted or mentally ill minor means absolutely nothing. And, the public blindly believes that “professionals” know what they’re doing, have the training to handle troubled people when they really don’t. Society just pushes problematic people off a cliff and wonders why they’re so fucked up afterwards.

I think the story of the girl who attended, tried to escape, found 1 person that gave them that false sense of hope that they'd been freed, only to be beaten, raped and killed, is the worst thing I'll ever hear. Her entire life was without love or hope or joy, she existed only to despise existence. She escaped the frying pan but found out what surrounded her was fire. The thought she'd left the evil behind only to fucking immediately fall back into it. Think about that, she spent years hoping to escape to the outside world and she meets 1 'person' and they were just as bad, if not worse. What a fucking waste of human life. I actually don't think I can imagine much worse happing to a single person. I'm sitting here right now trying to put what I'm thinking into world but I can't.

[@ThatOneDude7]

This is why most rape victims (if not almost all) are murdered. So yes, your thinking is correct. With all the detailed and advanced torture methods they devised, it would have been very easy to make it so students don't "make" it out. They could have made up an Elan university that is accessible only to the highschool students. Parents would be told their child was exceptional and would go to university and potentially become an elite member of society. (Not a single parent would say no since these idiots said yes to their children getting kidnapped). 4 years of torture would turn into 9 years of torture ... easily expendable with the excuse that you failed your classes and had to take another year or two. After "graduating" you would go straight into a mental hospital. Keep in mind they had waiting lists from all over the country. They could have easily expended this program, added electric walls and what not. Turn it into a secret prison. All they needed was one smart and soulless businessman and God knows the US has no shortage of those nowadays. This could have been much much darker.

[@knucklesgb3143]

It took us to make those creepy monsters up, took us to build what would become abandoned and haunting, took us to act out any kind of disturbing event. We are the monsters, the horrors our mind fills with is only because we alone are the sole beings capable of acting out what we project as a "monster" but in reality, it doesn't take a vampire to drink blood or a zombie to eat flesh.

Literally worse than prison, i would honestly rather die than being there

[@InuDemon]

That broom on the floor was used for general meetings and the rule was, if you could fit within the length of space of said broom, you could stand there and scream at the poor soul that the meeting is directed at. So if 2 people could fit there, there were 2 people screaming at once in your face. They were to scream as loud as they possibly could at the top of their lungs.

[@cero1258]

Yeah I think in this situation killing one of the staff to see if they would have the police get you would be the most hopeful outcome. I'm not really a violent person, but that is so fucked up that I would rather die fighting while still being who I am.

[@requiem4741]

Ngl, this video really disturbed me the more I learned about the school. I was always a "trouble child" when I was younger, so if my circumstances were different like having different parents, etc. there's a chance I might have ended up there. That in it of itself terrifies me.

[@requiem4741]

The only thing that gives me peace is that two of the three co-founders of the school died considerably bad deaths.

[@JrKdM]

That's why fucking kids today are lucky and better fucking fix their attitude and be grateful.

Seems like something I'd imagine in a nightmare, and for the people there, it probably was, just one that they wouldn't let them wake up (or fall asleep, probably isn't easy to fall asleep with a flashlight on you). Also doesn't make me feel any better seeing how recent it was, and how I never new about it till now. I mean I'd think it's super unlikely for anything like this to happen nowadays, but isn't that just what people were thinking when this was happening? And if so, they clearly weren't right, so how can I be sure I am? Guess I'll just have to wait and find out (or not find out). Hope I don't get shot or bludgeoned by a golf club before I do (or don't) find out.

[@sganet_]

A lot of the things happened in the video happened to me. I was taken from my bed at 6 the morning back in 2003 to CEDU HS in Running Springs, CA. Then I was taken to Ascent which is CEDU’s wilderness boot camp in the back country of North Idaho. CEDU was started by members and followers of Synanon. The founder’s name is Charles E Dederich, which C E D U was named after. I later ended up at CEDU’s northwest academy for 17 year olds in Idaho. As of today, there are still many kids missing even after CEDU was shut down. PTSD is very common among the alumni where some peer groups have suicide rate of as high as 60%. CEDU high literally hired staff that was later convicted for multiple murder and sexual assault of minors, that guy later committed suicide in prison.

I'm pretty sure there's a Phineas and Ferb episode that was based on Elan now that I think about it. It's an episode called "Phineas and Ferb Get Busted!" and if you've seen the show or the episode, the title is pretty self explanatory. The boys get caught making a huge, dangerous tower and are eventually sent to a reformatory school which advertise themselves as one that are extremely effective with their program, just like Elan advertise itself. Eventually, we find out that it's basically a prison, and there's scenes where both Phineas and Ferb were basically seen as slaves to the school, one scene stood out to me the most and it's only because I remember it but they were cleaning the toilet with just one toothbrush. Later in the episode, Candace decide to get them out of the school and see her brothers absolutely brainwashed. It took quite a lot of effort for her to get them back to normal.

[@wanderinginthewoods_sam]

This is why so many people need to be aware of places like this. You watch it right, and question if it's real or not. Not everything is out of an horror movie. You have no idea what happens behind closed doors. To those who watch this and say, "This is fake." or "Yeah... right." is very naive. Because this shit really happens and there's still Schools like this exist. This is terrifying. I pray for all those kids, who went through all that Torment at Elan School. My heart goes out to them, and I hope they fully heal one day. ❤️

[@mistakeef4956]

one time my mom told me i had a checkup and drove me to a hospital i had never heard of or been to. upon arrival, she left immedately. i knew something wasnt right when i was forced to change into hospital scrubs. i didnt leave that hospital for over a year(yes, i was inside for a whole year without being a discord mod?!). apparently it was a psychiatric hospital for people grades 6-12. if i wasnt in sight of security at all times(including bathroom and shower) i would be tackled to the ground. some rules were: no raising your voice, no talking about the outside world, no physical contact. all remotely sharp objects were forbidden, including things like pencils. some punishments were beatings by security, verbal abuse by "doctors" and solitary confinement for days at a time in either a blank white room or a completely pitch black one. they would often draw my blood, so much that i wouldnt be able to stand afterwards. maybe they did this to weaken me. they would also make us take meds that i didnt know what they were. im not going to mention other punishments or things i saw or endured. i snuck a toothbrush into the dark solitary room just so i could sharpen it against the concrete and cut myself because i hated myself so much for being there. now that i'm out, i still have nightmares and visions about being there, as well and other sick hallucinations. maybe i really do belong there.

[@Smokie181]

This is how you raise a killer if you ask me. These kids probably go home with great vengeance and looking for retribution, NOT love. This would give the feeling of ones parents abandoning them, create division even if that isn't the primary goal. The damage done here is life long trauma, PTSD. I'll tell you this now, unconditional love overpowers EVERYTHING in the end. Sending your kids to a place like this or "boot camp" is you giving up on your child. About bonds and bail: Bail money will be provided back to the person who posted bail if the defendant isn’t found to be guilty or if the charges are dropped against them. Until the defendant has completed all of the charges, the court will continue to hold on to the bail money. After the defendant has shown up for each court date, the courts will return the money back to the individual who painted the entire bail amount. On the other hand, if the defendant skips out on any appearances to the court, the bail amount will be held by the court. The money that the court makes off of the bail money will be distributed throughout the city and county. If you are found guilty, the courts will refund the bail money that was posted. How the bail money is returned to you is completely dependent upon who paid your bail money. For example, if you paid a bondsman to post your bail, you’ll owe your bondsman 10% of what your bail amount was.

seeing chat say you dont get the bail back makes me happy. They obviously are innocent enough not to know the answer. If you post bail and you paid it yourself in full then YES you get it back if you go to back to court on the date posted on your bail. However, if you post bail by getting a bail BOND then you pay 10% of bail and you DONT get that money back. This is coming from a juicer who had a little trouble with the law before so yeah......Stay innocent juicers and dont think you have all the answers in chat lol

how unlucky does one have to be to escape a hell whole of a school just to be shot

[@catalyzt9]

I was court ordered to go to a similar facility here in Arkansas, known as Trinity Behavioral Health. While this was in 2012, and much of the more sadistic sides of the industry were long gone by then, I can say the experience was likely beneficial. I was a terrible teen, who was well on the way to becoming a full fledged meth addict, and likely would be dead or in prison if not for TBH. This school turned me into a well adjusted adult, who has gone on to become extremely successful in the business world. That being said, I am a shell of who I was once was. I find no enjoyment in the company of others, and the most exciting times of my life are spent alone, in front of a computer screen, escaping reality. I say all of this to say, these places, in modern times, do have success stories from the outside looking in, but, the things they do to your mind might not be worth the prize.

[@Syllaren]

Considering they did them, I can confidently say they didn't have any real psychological study about the elan snatch. Mainly since a 7yo could confirm that it's a terrible stupid idea if you have any intention of improving someone's mental state lol

I’ve been to one of these troubled teen societies. one of the worst parts is that they let you call or talk to your parents every now and then. but before they allow you to speak to them, the “counselors” tell your parents that if you say anything about abuse or horrible treatment that it’s nothing to worry about because it’s just your kid being dramatic and lying so you can go home sooner.
