The fact is that a lot of kids that get sent to camps like these arent even spoiled. They're abused kids who act like regular teens and get punished for it. The number one type of kid most often sent to these camps are actually foster kids. The adults who take them in dont realize how hard parenting is, espeically considering how much foester kids go through. The other main type is kids with disorders/disabilities. ADHD, OCD, Depression, Anxitey, Autism; anything that makes the kid 'troublesome'
@StillJustD What bad behavior? Most kids that get sent to these places are foster kids who are used as decoration. The other ones come from over-religious families. Kids who don't follow religious customs, as in young women who date or kids who are gay. A giant amount of these kids come in with mental disorders that are the cause of their 'poor behavior'. Kids with autism, ADHD, depression; their parents send them to these camps to "fix" what can't be fixed. Sad fact, too, is that a lot of the time, these have been diagnosed, so the parents are fully aware. An unsurprising amount is victims of domestic abuse. When the beating doesn't work, parents send them here to isolate them instead. Sending your kids to camps like these is a sign that you are a bad parent and a bad person. You don't admit or acknowledge your part to play in the outcome of your child and instead put it complelty on them to fix your failed relationship - alone, several miles away from you while they are abused. Parents who send their kids to these camps should always be investigated by CPS because there is basically always an issue in the home. These are the types of parents who think kids are objects that you control.
@StillJustD Thank you for proving your own ignorance. Really, it helps a lot. Mental disorders did not 'just become a thing' in the 90s. Rather, systems were finally put into place that forced society to acknowledge them. Though, I guess it's hard to acknowledge that people exist when they are forced into institutions and kept out of the media to invent the idea that they don't exist. I suggest picking up a history book, which may clear some things up to you. There' a reason we have all those cool little acts that were put into place to protect them. I mean. It's almost like we have historical data of individuals with disorders stemming all the way back to 1100 B.C.E in China. And treatment plans even. Second, the point that you blatantly missed was that the parents who sent their kids to these camps were extremist authoritarians. People who think they can control the very hormonal balance of their children, then get upset when it doesn't work. The fact is that parents who place restrictions on uncontrollable factors are not only stupid people but abusive ones as well. Children can not control the chemical and biological makeup of their brains- which is what nearly all disorders/mental disabilities stem from. Even someone who got a C in basic anatomy can tell you that.
@@StillJustDmental disorders have been around since society has become a thing lol. People just didn’t realize it until the 90’s and mental disorders do cause people to act differently like for an instant a psychopath, that’s a mental disorder that cannot be changed and it causes people like psychopaths to act in a insane manner some worse than other but some not as bad . I don’t know if you don’t have a working brain but you seem like you could have a mental illness to because you sure are lacking common sense, knowledge and clearly a brain
sad fact is, boot camps like this still exist, young teens have died due to to the treatment of the camp and countless teenage girls have confessed they were sexually abused by the adults there
There are some wilderness camps that DO help people. Not all of them are that bad. Most of them ARENT that bad. My brother was a terrible kid. He tried SA me multiple times and constantly threatened to kill our family. When a kid is THAT bad and you've done everything you can, what are you supposed to do at that point? He went to an actual, credible and reliable, wilderness camp and then went to a boarding school afterwards. He is now a completely different person. He is now a respectable adult and without that camp he would honestly probably be in jail for murder and multiple cases of rape as he got older. If you are talking about the documentary I THINK you're talking about: Although there have been terrible things that have happened at those camps, that documentary didn't talk to ANYONE who actually made it through a wilderness program that wasn't clearly corrupt. Everyone interviewed was bitter about their experience (which they have every right to be). I'd also like to add that the documentary was specifically about the camps run by one man. One very sick and demented man. There have been thosands of car crashes... we still use cars. Hospitals have sexual and physically abused their patients as well as intentionally killing them... we still use them. I encourage you to look at all sides when it comes to wilderness camps. It's not black and white. When you have an out of control child and you've tried everything, there isn't much else you can do. I owe my life and sanity to the StarGuides wilderness program. I have no clue what would've happened to me if my brother wasn't sent there when he was. Residential therapy, psychwards, boarding schools, juvenile detention centers, and wilderness camps are hard to swallow, but they are so very needed for some kids. I went to a Residential center and a psychward and have severe trauma from it, but I'm not dead. Those places suck, but they are needed.
I don’t know if Sophie’s scene is accurate, but Danny’s is. Your parents can hire people referred to as ‘goons’. They wake you up while you’re sleeping, doesn’t matter if you’re dressed or not, and they take you outside to their car where the drive you to whatever facility your parents have signed you up for. They’re allowed to physically grab you. They rent cars so their cars don’t get destroyed when the teens try to escape. The worst part is that it’s totally legal.
I seen this movie. The parents spoil the kids and put little to no rules then complain when the kids are out of control and send them to places like this. Such places traumatize and abuse the kids only making the problems worse and covered up some kids are injured left with illness and or pass away which is the parent fault for not parenting the kids properly
@luxxnoir it has nothing to do with whether or not I now exactly what the word is. It has everything to do with censorship and taking away our 1st amendment right
@luxxnoir you don’t know more than me so no it isn’t embarrassing for me maybe you though. The 1st amendment isn’t about having freedom of speech only in a court of law. Before pretending to know our rights and Constitution maybe you should read it. Or maybe just stick to what you actually know.
it was pretty common in almost all the camp that emitted Elan the wiorse one where the camps doing Conversion therapy where parents will send there kids to fix there Homosexuality school that are still legal today since they fail into Religions belief
The girl who's parents got angry at her for hating their religion, does NOT deserve to be there! If anything, it's her parents who need a reality check; not everyone appreciates being told they're going to Hell.
god make everyone to be there self not other it the parent who believe they right that likely going to hell people are make to follow there path god set for them if that have sex with 8 people that ok it all path of god plan
Would be a very nice idea but some are accused. So imagine going through all that for something you didn't do only because you couldn't afford a capable lawyer
With teens and young adults these days? Heck they need something like this. Most support ideologies that enable predators to celebrate Alice Days every time with sexuality taught in primary schools. Easy pickings, especially for that influencer who wants to "talk" with kids w/o their parents around.
Plot twist.... they are actually partying with the manager and owners of the camp because they truly want their kids to " go away" ( dead or tortured to death)...........😑😑😑😑😑😑😲😲😲😰😰😰😅😅😅😅
It was my dream, if I ever had the means, to buy a ranch and have at-risk kids care for the animals, especially horses, which they would be allowed to ride once their chores were done. I think the sense of responsibility and satisfaction of taking care of the animals would work wonders, which punishment could never achieve. P.S.: Humiliation and degradation never reformed anyone.
It was proven at a camp similar and even at jail giving someone responsibility and nor treating them like shit but also not being too lenient you cab rehabilitate someone. It was done at a jail for those who weren't violent or stopped being for over a year, most were rehabilitated l
I agree with you but also know that when you have a bunch of at risk kids together that problems can happen and punishment of some kind would be necessary. And i personally am not the one that can deal with taking on the responsibility of raising abused or damaged kids. in my opinion having a degree in psychology and some type of counseling background would help immensely. I had a friend who was a very good friend. Her dad was not a good dad at all and had kids with another woman while married to my friends mom. They got divorced and the mom raised my friend on her own. Flash forward about 10 years and my friend rescued her dads kids from a terrible life of poverty and neglect and started to raise them herself. Flash forward another 5 or 7 years and they all live together in a trashy house with garbage and animal waste everywhere. The younger girl has anger issues, separation anxiety , depression, and a host of behavioral issues and is not doing well in school . The son has a lot of the same issues and gets into trouble at school often, lives in filth at home, and has no role models whatsoever. Point is, even though my friend did the honorable thing and had empathy/compassion for others struggles and wanted to do something about it, she wasn't much better at raising kids than her father and had her own issues she never dealt with before taking on the responsibility of wife and mother. He husband has health issues that she has to monitor and she isn't the best at doing that either. He treats her badly and has threatened her when they were drunk together on several occasions. So good intentions only go so far unless you're willing to spend much of your life preparing yourself for your dream so you dont turn into what happened in this movie.
Given that those kids don’t have a history of abusing stray animals. If they do, you will have to monitor them very closely to make sure they don’t secretly hurt the animal.
Not sure why entitled parents get annoyed with the entitled monsters they themselves created via neglect? Because, yeah, trauma is a great method of behavioural modification
it is not always neglect some kids are also just bad, but in general everything is behavioural modification... if you trip and fall hitting your knee, the pain tells you not to do it again, the world itself modifies your behavior with the sensory input, we as humans inflicting punishments make use of this natural mechanism, though some people abuse this or go beyond what should be acceptable...
@@aoisora1445 Going with Abuser-advocacy. Interesting choice. Given your repeating of the "some kids are just bad" fallacy, I think you are ignorantly misinformed about childhood development and sarcasm. Not going to go into a full lecture series about the multifaceted experience that is development. Use 'Google Scholar' as a search engine instead of just 'Google' to find more reliable information about this and the rest of research science. Yes, Blue, behavioural modification be the core of every interaction and it is still not acceptable to induce physical nor psychological trauma on another as a convenient way to change their behaviours to that which is more convenient to thyself. It's lazy. One could say neglectful, even abusive
Most of these so called 'boot camps' are full of kids who aren't 'bad'. They may not conform to the religious or political beliefs their parents do, or they may have some issues due to untreated/undiagnosed learning/behavioural disabilities..but they aren't 'bad'. Their parents just cannot or do not want to deal w/them, or think they can change who they are (see how many kids are sent to 'straight' camps that function like this) it's really quite despicable.
I went to one of these places. A lot of kids there werent spoiled, in fact just the opposite: they had super strict parents. All these kids need is a bit of understanding and leniency, but their parents have spent their lives showing nothing but "tough love," which culminated in what amounts to Military School on steroids. These places are for kids who aren't bad enough to go to jail, but bad enough to make their parents go nuclear and send them away. I had bad grades and smoked pot. Don't get me wrong, there were some spoiled rich A-holes, a couple of thugs, and some legit drug addicts but those were the exceptions, not the rule.
It makes me too sad to see movie like this . No matter what kids do at that age it's a parents responsibility to love and support them. True story: Not long before in iran a father killed his daughter . Reason ? because she stays out past sunsets and didn't obey him😢😢😢
This is how parents end up either bring put in senior homes or have contact cut. They spoiled them They have to punshied them themselves other wise it solves nothing other than the kids will see them as monsters.
I haven't heard of this movie before, but I actually wonder about one thing in your recap. When Ben and Sophie managed to escape, how exactly did the bootcamp security know where they are? They've removed the ankle tracker. So unless they have a second tracker somehow embedded inside them, there's no way they would have known their exact location.
They probably guessed that the closest island would be where they would go. I'm sure escape attempts had happened in the past and it would make sense to go to the closest island that has an airport.
Or probably the receptionist told on them. If you looked at the scene where the receptionist is given them the keys. The receptionist makes a glance at Ben's arm where you can see where he was injecting.
That's the problem when you have religious fanatics for parents. You don't conform, they have you be traumatized thinking it will "put the fear of God" in you.
@@jorienwachukwu466luckily my parents are not like this but they’re religious and they hate witches and pagans, and I tried seeing how the Christian community is and they’re toxic as heck

Unfortunately, many "rehabilitation" centers for troubled teens are like that in the real world. This story might be fiction, but that camp is based on numerous real places, and yes, they're just as brutal as in that movie. Some even more so. The people behind it getting punished is the unrealistic part.
@@politicallyambiguous8424 *sigh* it would be nice if more or even better all rehabilitation centers were humane and ACTUALLY rehabilitated children who ACTUALLY NEED IT! Ya... so few involved get punished.
Hello Film Recaps, I love your videos, I was wondering if I could ask you for a favor: Could you do a movie recap of the 2022 movie called The Mean One? I can't find any proper recaps of it on RUclips, and I'm afraid that I might never get to see it.
Boot Camp is Fortress meets Lord of the Flies. A teenage girl is sent by her parents to a prison-like boot camp on an island in the South Pacific run by a corrupt doctor which teenagers are brutally punished if they don't obey and play by the rules.
You can watch documentary with Paris Hilton about such camps, she herself was in one of these boot camps and also she was interviewing others, most of the kids became suicidial and self destructive after that experience.
The boyfriend’s parents just randomly found the exact same camp in the pacific? There in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and they thought they could escape?
@@bobbierobinson6269 why not me? Sheer dumb luck. I am 20 years older than mentioned siblings, and no way my mother would allow anyone else to program me but her with sadistic brand of love, and no way dad would have been allowed by his wife to have spent the money on something frivolous - like children from another woman.
Boot camps like this for kids actually use to exist. I’ve noticed tons of similarities the movie did that real camps do. Back then they use to be completely un sanctioned and it was easy to trick the public on what was going on so tons of shady stuff would occur. These camps were normally religious based and to attempt to bring kids back on the right path. No figure religion has been the root of all evil for a while now
A lot of the parents who sent their kids to things like this were lied to. They were told it was going to be like your standard military school -- some yelling, some strict behavior, but everything being generally legal. You lose television privilege, you have to wear a uniform, you have to do a normal amount of push-ups and sit ups, etc. In the end, the parents trust was broken and the kids trust was broken in the parents. That's the biggest tragedy. When it happens from people honestly thinking this was the right thing.
@@tishcarter3918 The parents know what they're doing. Some parents even said in interviews that they know that their children will get abused there "We aren't stupid".
Some of these kids are arguably not even spoiled. Not wanting to be forced religion on you, have spats with parents, drugs; all of these aren't signs of being spoiled, they're signs of needing help. Help that boot camps away from the roots of the problem aren't going to fix. All these camps do is put the child solely at blame and force them to fix an issue conpleltly by themselves.
@admaanhason7410 About a serious issue that a lot of people don't truly recognize. The troubled teen industry has been killing kids for years. This movie is specifically about the Elan School.
So if someone at the boot camp decided to delete themselves from existence doesn’t that mean they failed to change that person they’d either have to say I went missing in their highly secure prison or admit someone died on their land
This reminds me of the Netflix documentary, Hellcamp. Some of the students went back to find all of the documentation of abuse to mail to other former students or burn, depending on the persons request.
Wow I remember watching this movie and till this day the *ape scene sticks with me. I never remembered what movie it was from, but I always remembered that scene. Cool movie
Cause I'm sick about people bashing wilderness camps here is my two cents: There are some wilderness camps that DO help people. Not all of them are that bad. Most of them ARENT that bad. My brother was a terrible kid. Getting into fights, running away from home, physically hurting my parents and I, he tried SA me multiple times, SA'd my cousin, constantly threatened to kill our family and so much more. When a kid is THAT bad and you've done everything you can, what are you supposed to do at that point? He went to an actual, credible and reliable, wilderness camp and then went to a boarding school afterwards. He was gone for about 3 years. He is now a completely different person. He is now a respectable adult and without that camp he would honestly probably be in jail for murder and multiple cases of rape as he got older. There have been thosands of car crashes... we still use cars. Hospitals have sexual and physically abused their patients as well as intentionally killing them... we still use them. Just think about that before you read or watch someone about a couple of corrupt places. I encourage you to look at all sides when it comes to wilderness camps. It's not black and white. When you have an out of control child and you've tried everything, there isn't much else you can do. I owe my life and sanity to the StarGuides wilderness program.

It’s the fact that you sent your child to a boot camp because they were bad… when in reality they keep doing it because y’all don’t do anything about it so y’all need to step up YALL game as parents and not let your children push you around.
Ben purposely getting himself sent to a torture camp, on the other side of the Earth, shows he has more love and dedication to Sophie than most grown ass adults who are married have towards each other! They should totally get married. ❤
reminds of that program camp called elan school basically parents sent their kids to that place, kids get abused mentally, caused a few death so yeah america system in a nutshell

Point is, even though my friend did the honorable thing and had empathy/compassion for others struggles and wanted to do something about it, she wasn't much better at raising kids than her father and had her own issues she never dealt with before taking on the responsibility of wife and mother. He husband has health issues that she has to monitor and she isn't the best at doing that either. He treats her badly and has threatened her when they were drunk together on several occasions.
So good intentions only go so far unless you're willing to spend much of your life preparing yourself for your dream so you dont turn into what happened in this movie.
That is my dream - exactly!!💯💯
Given that those kids don’t have a history of abusing stray animals. If they do, you will have to monitor them very closely to make sure they don’t secretly hurt the animal.
Not sure why entitled parents get annoyed with the entitled monsters they themselves created via neglect?
Because, yeah, trauma is a great method of behavioural modification
it is not always neglect some kids are also just bad, but in general everything is behavioural modification... if you trip and fall hitting your knee, the pain tells you not to do it again, the world itself modifies your behavior with the sensory input, we as humans inflicting punishments make use of this natural mechanism, though some people abuse this or go beyond what should be acceptable...
@@aoisora1445 Going with Abuser-advocacy. Interesting choice.
Given your repeating of the "some kids are just bad" fallacy, I think you are ignorantly misinformed about childhood development and sarcasm.
Not going to go into a full lecture series about the multifaceted experience that is development.
Use 'Google Scholar' as a search engine instead of just 'Google' to find more reliable information about this and the rest of research science.
Yes, Blue, behavioural modification be the core of every interaction and it is still not acceptable to induce physical nor psychological trauma on another as a convenient way to change their behaviours to that which is more convenient to thyself.
It's lazy. One could say neglectful, even abusive
@@aoisora1445 positive punishment is much less effective than the reinforcement strategies of behavioural modification
This is based on Elan school. And no one got a happy ending almost and more people were hurt.
a bad child is the result of bad parents. do not blame your child, blame yourself.
Not every bad child is the result of bad parents
*exceptions proof the rule, but otherwise yes.
Most of these so called 'boot camps' are full of kids who aren't 'bad'. They may not conform to the religious or political beliefs their parents do, or they may have some issues due to untreated/undiagnosed learning/behavioural disabilities..but they aren't 'bad'. Their parents just cannot or do not want to deal w/them, or think they can change who they are (see how many kids are sent to 'straight' camps that function like this) it's really quite despicable.
I mean, there's also a bad student environment or simply having a bunch of bad influences.
@@thebeginner4074Both of which can be significantly mitigated in the vast majority of cases if you're an attentive parent
During the confession scene. First(name calling, pushing) Second(hugs)
Amazing recap as always ❤
I went to one of these places. A lot of kids there werent spoiled, in fact just the opposite: they had super strict parents. All these kids need is a bit of understanding and leniency, but their parents have spent their lives showing nothing but "tough love," which culminated in what amounts to Military School on steroids.
These places are for kids who aren't bad enough to go to jail, but bad enough to make their parents go nuclear and send them away. I had bad grades and smoked pot.
Don't get me wrong, there were some spoiled rich A-holes, a couple of thugs, and some legit drug addicts but those were the exceptions, not the rule.
❤I love it when Film recap gives us another Banger!!enjoyed this recap
0:27 Be kind to your children. They choose your retirement home.
It makes me too sad to see movie like this .
No matter what kids do at that age it's a parents responsibility to love and support them.
True story:
Not long before in iran a father killed his daughter . Reason ? because she stays out past sunsets and didn't obey him😢😢😢
This is how parents end up either bring put in senior homes or have contact cut. They spoiled them They have to punshied them themselves other wise it solves nothing other than the kids will see them as monsters.
I haven't heard of this movie before, but I actually wonder about one thing in your recap. When Ben and Sophie managed to escape, how exactly did the bootcamp security know where they are? They've removed the ankle tracker. So unless they have a second tracker somehow embedded inside them, there's no way they would have known their exact location.
They probably guessed that the closest island would be where they would go. I'm sure escape attempts had happened in the past and it would make sense to go to the closest island that has an airport.
@@justsomedudeyouknow8372 I guess you made a good point there
Or probably the receptionist told on them. If you looked at the scene where the receptionist is given them the keys. The receptionist makes a glance at Ben's arm where you can see where he was injecting.
@@XZsuperBoomYep. When I saw how the receptionist looked at him, I knew they were caught.
I already knew that the hotel was gonna snitch on them
The teen don't want to be forced on religion and parents sent her there?
Wow Karen couple
That's the problem when you have religious fanatics for parents. You don't conform, they have you be traumatized thinking it will "put the fear of God" in you.
The only thing my parents force to is having a good life
No, they sent her because she started having sex with anyone and everyone.
@@jorienwachukwu466luckily my parents are not like this but they’re religious and they hate witches and pagans, and I tried seeing how the Christian community is and they’re toxic as heck
Its so unconstitutional in the US, they should be jailed.
i wasnt a problem child growing up but ill admit...i was very stubborn, if i didnt want to do something, i wouldnt do it...even my mother came to terms with it. even now as a grown man i'm still adamant about certain things...you'd have to kill me on day one cuz i wouldnt go through all that
It’s ok because same , you can’t force people to do something they don’t want to do lol but people feel very entitled to force it even when they think they can enforce it , they really can’t I’m very stubborn and I don’t care that I am if I don’t want to do something I’m not going to unless it’s beneficial in good ways
One of my friends was sent to boot camp for having ADHD. One of the things they did to "rehabilitate" him was to teach him to use firearms.
You can take the kid out of the home, but you can't take the home out of the kid.
Thank you for another intriguing recap!
I don't think this is what a rehabilitation center should look like...
Unfortunately, many "rehabilitation" centers for troubled teens are like that in the real world. This story might be fiction, but that camp is based on numerous real places, and yes, they're just as brutal as in that movie. Some even more so.
The people behind it getting punished is the unrealistic part.
@@politicallyambiguous8424 *sigh* it would be nice if more or even better all rehabilitation centers were humane and ACTUALLY rehabilitated children who ACTUALLY NEED IT!
Ya... so few involved get punished.
They choose to have children so it 100% parents fault
The place looks like that place where Jim Jones lived. Scary and disgusting
My anger issues would never
Your not him budddy 😂
@@croccake4178 can we stop with saying that its getting old. just call him stupid, thats much more fun.
I've honestly never heard of this movie before!
This was a great movie! 😊
Hello Film Recaps, I love your videos, I was wondering if I could ask you for a favor:
Could you do a movie recap of the 2022 movie called The Mean One?
I can't find any proper recaps of it on RUclips, and I'm afraid that I might never get to see it.
Sure, I'll give it a look
an nice day with a nice movie from movie recap
love it boo 😘
This movie made me very angry. I wanted to help those kids get away from those awful adults at the boot camp.
Mrs Hail and Logan were getting it on obviously.
Boot Camp is Fortress meets Lord of the Flies. A teenage girl is sent by her parents to a prison-like boot camp on an island in the South Pacific run by a corrupt doctor which teenagers are brutally punished if they don't obey and play by the rules.
Just watched this movie it was really good and based on a true story
Seriously?
Do you have any references to to the real story?
You can watch documentary with Paris Hilton about such camps, she herself was in one of these boot camps and also she was interviewing others, most of the kids became suicidial and self destructive after that experience.
I think they were inspired by Elan school
*many true stories that happen until today.
The fact that the background song is the leek song brings me great joy
Wtf is pushing me around gonna do. I still wouldn't say anything.
Watched it a bit further, hitting me with a cane is wild.
That was great!!!! You delivered that very well 💪💪💪
The boyfriend’s parents just randomly found the exact same camp in the pacific? There in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and they thought they could escape?
Great channel, keep up the good work , it is very much appreciated
The parents kindled the fire It grew and became a bush fire Now they want to throw oil on the fire
My dad and stupid birch stepmum did this to my younger brother and sister.
I'm going to cry for a bit if you don't mind
Sorry to hear that friend 😢
Why not you?
@@bobbierobinson6269 why not me?
Sheer dumb luck.
I am 20 years older than mentioned siblings, and no way my mother would allow anyone else to program me but her with sadistic brand of love, and no way dad would have been allowed by his wife to have spent the money on something frivolous - like children from another woman.
Do your parents try to talk to you and your siblings after that? What’s their justification
This is fucking AWFUL. They should NOT have programs like this. Sick. The leaders are WRONG
The raise their kids wrong and blame the kids. LOL
So this is Most Strict Parents but as a movie.
Interesting.
This movie has such amazing casts and Thank you for sharing. I'll be watching it on Tubi. You too have amazing day also 👍👍👍👍
i cried that they were forcing the teens to confess tbh is also kinda sad that this exist
"And light up a blunt" 😂
in a weord way, it worked. the kids worked together to take out the bad guys and lived happily ever after.
Technically by their mindset it did not work because they still "rebelled".
@@kaleallerion595 ah true! I didn't realize that!
Boot camps like this for kids actually use to exist. I’ve noticed tons of similarities the movie did that real camps do. Back then they use to be completely un sanctioned and it was easy to trick the public on what was going on so tons of shady stuff would occur. These camps were normally religious based and to attempt to bring kids back on the right path. No figure religion has been the root of all evil for a while now
The ending was beautiful ❤
Rage against the machine.
Man this is so messed up, why would you even have kids if you’re going to do this to them?
Several parents have kids * to * do this and other things to them.
A lot of the parents who sent their kids to things like this were lied to. They were told it was going to be like your standard military school -- some yelling, some strict behavior, but everything being generally legal. You lose television privilege, you have to wear a uniform, you have to do a normal amount of push-ups and sit ups, etc. In the end, the parents trust was broken and the kids trust was broken in the parents. That's the biggest tragedy. When it happens from people honestly thinking this was the right thing.
@@tishcarter3918 The parents know what they're doing. Some parents even said in interviews that they know that their children will get abused there "We aren't stupid".
Oh, I hadn't heard that. Can you give me a source?@@qq84
Mate i know the kids are spoiled but this is a torture worse than what jo, my character will give
And jo is canadian
"jo"?
Some of these kids are arguably not even spoiled. Not wanting to be forced religion on you, have spats with parents, drugs; all of these aren't signs of being spoiled, they're signs of needing help. Help that boot camps away from the roots of the problem aren't going to fix. All these camps do is put the child solely at blame and force them to fix an issue conpleltly by themselves.
@@feodorawicked5014Well it's a random B-movie.
@admaanhason7410 About a serious issue that a lot of people don't truly recognize. The troubled teen industry has been killing kids for years. This movie is specifically about the Elan School.
well well well she couldnt hold back to the chicken
I’ve got to see this!
How did they find them?
the book was so incredible.
"she lights up the blunt" for the record thats a joint, a blunt is made with tobacco paper, like a cigar ...
The movie makes no sense, the boyfriend suddenly appears. No cheap movie indeed.
Dr Phil version
Lmao right?? I was literally saying "so The Ranch"
Fun Fact: She's the voice of Meg.... *Shut up meg*
Mann the intro music is so captivating I'm guessing that's a banjo with that smooth a** bass💯 SHEESH
Its ievan polkka
@@collinsgrimm4192 thank you.
So if someone at the boot camp decided to delete themselves from existence doesn’t that mean they failed to change that person they’d either have to say I went missing in their highly secure prison or admit someone died on their land
Title?.. pls
whats the name of the movie.!
This reminds me of the Netflix documentary, Hellcamp. Some of the students went back to find all of the documentation of abuse to mail to other former students or burn, depending on the persons request.
I'm going to watch this later.
Film recaps is Oscar and the Boss in charge
I'm just here to Observe
Because its my name.........
Wow I remember watching this movie and till this day the *ape scene sticks with me. I never remembered what movie it was from, but I always remembered that scene. Cool movie
This is how I watch movies nowadays
Cause I'm sick about people bashing wilderness camps here is my two cents:
There are some wilderness camps that DO help people. Not all of them are that bad. Most of them ARENT that bad. My brother was a terrible kid. Getting into fights, running away from home, physically hurting my parents and I, he tried SA me multiple times, SA'd my cousin, constantly threatened to kill our family and so much more. When a kid is THAT bad and you've done everything you can, what are you supposed to do at that point? He went to an actual, credible and reliable, wilderness camp and then went to a boarding school afterwards. He was gone for about 3 years. He is now a completely different person. He is now a respectable adult and without that camp he would honestly probably be in jail for murder and multiple cases of rape as he got older.
There have been thosands of car crashes... we still use cars. Hospitals have sexual and physically abused their patients as well as intentionally killing them... we still use them. Just think about that before you read or watch someone about a couple of corrupt places.
I encourage you to look at all sides when it comes to wilderness camps. It's not black and white. When you have an out of control child and you've tried everything, there isn't much else you can do. I owe my life and sanity to the StarGuides wilderness program. I have no clue what would've happened to me if my brother wasn't sent there when he was.
Residential therapy, psychwards, boarding schools, juvenile detention centers, and wilderness camps are hard to swallow, but they are so very needed for some kids. Not all of those programs are bad. Some are, some aren't. I went to a Residential center and a psychward and have severe trauma from it, but I'm not dead. Those places suck, but they are needed.
😂sophie is atleast 30
Something the recap left out, at the end of the film it's revealed that there are at least 40 deaths associated with these disgusting camps.
It’s the fact that you sent your child to a boot camp because they were bad… when in reality they keep doing it because y’all don’t do anything about it so y’all need to step up YALL game as parents and not let your children push you around.
Ben purposely getting himself sent to a torture camp, on the other side of the Earth, shows he has more love and dedication to Sophie than most grown ass adults who are married have towards each other! They should totally get married. ❤
most realistic part of this movie is the black girl stealing chicken
all this just for the kids to go back to acting bad
Wow 😮 i dont see anything wrong for kids who commit crimes to go to a place like this rather than jail
What's a disc tape?
Anyone know his intro music?
reminds of that program camp called elan school
basically parents sent their kids to that place, kids get abused mentally, caused a few death
so yeah america system in a nutshell
That's only one of many places like that and it's not just in America. As a matter of fact, today it's mostly outside of the states.
Day 2 asking what the soundtrack you use throughout your video 🙃
This actually happened to my Son-in law.They took him in the middle of the night, like a horror film.
It is like synanon on an island
Didnt this happen in South Park 💀
Or yk...take them to therapy?
And jack calls him a fuck stick🤖
Seems oretty similar to a couple programs i was in back in the early 2000s when i was s trenager ... Kids *DO NOT* DO DRUGS!!!
the boss is ernst röhm from rise of evil 😱
Holes - Louis Sachar (1998)
Lmao I hope this is a joke
Who comes up with these storylines?
