These places always sound like hell on earth. One of the tiktokers I follow was basically handed off to strangers on her 14th bday to one of those "wilderness camps" for "troubled teens" and ended up stuck for four months in 7 ft of snow. People really think traumatizing the absolute hell out of kids is going to make them "straighten up and fly right" but it's just going to make them hate you and put your ass in a nursing home.

A friend of mine is a writer and he wrote a book based off those wilderness camps. It's fiction but it was inspired by what his friend went through. The fact these places operate at all with no oversight is so scary.

what?? stuck how??

They wouldn't let any of the kids leave, they were dropped off with a handful of staff with tents and a few supplies and then a wicked blizzard came through. I don't remember the full details but it was a pretty harrowing type of survival situation.

its so wild to me that someone as priveledged as Paris went through this- I dont know why but I feel like rich kids would be exempt from some hellish school like this.

very true. I dont know why I envisioned wealth protecting these kids in horrific situations like this

She’s a girl. I’m this world no girl or women are exempt from these things regardless of the wealth status.

I'm glad she's using her privilege to shine light on this issue. I'm sure it's not easy, I hope she's proud of herself.

This is horrifying. Good for her speaking out about this.
