Like everyone else commenting I also stumbled across a post about it and couldn't stop reading until I was caught up with it.
One of the things that really stuck out to me about the situation they put these kids into is that it functions like a cult (another user has already pointed out that its' methods are based on the cult Synanon), except unlike other cults the mechanisms that keep people there are not just from manipulation and abuse, but also legal. It's a fucking cult that if you leave, the cops (or hired private citizens operating legally) will hunt you down and bring you back. These places are disgusting and so is our society for letting them exist in the first place.
