Exactly! Thank you, Doctor!In my professional opinion, any time you invite total strangers into your home to literally kidnap your child, you are inflicting trauma on your kid. These programs should be illegal, but even if one or two of them have merit, this technique of whisking kids away should be illegal. 100%.
These camps are just a way for parents to hire a third party to commit child abuse. IMHO, obviously.
(Please note: I'm saying "abuse" is the end result, not the intention of the parents. I do know what it is like to be at one's wits' end as a parent, and my heart goes out to the parents in this case. But "tough love" out of sight of the child's relatives (not to mention out of the jurisdiction of CPS) is not the answer.)
