    It kind of sounds like she might be embellishing the truth a bit there.

    As a teen attending high school in Tennessee, Henry Seaton just wanted to use the school restroom like any other student. When he was denied, he testified before state legislature and mounted an ultimately successful legal challenge. He spent a year working with American Civil Liberties Union after graduation before attending college in Colorado. He has now returned to Tennessee where he is state's first trans justice advocate.

    Teens were sent to Wyoming ranches for therapy. They say they found a nightmare of hard labor and humiliation.
    Two Christian programs are accused of forcing troubled teens to do heavy farm work. One man says he was branded with a cross. Three women say they were tied to a goat as a punishment.

    For girls who were depressed, drinking, skipping school or fighting with their families, Trinity Teen Solutions claimed to offer a cure. Desperate parents paid $6,000 a month to send their children to the Christian therapeutic program at a working ranch in a remote area of Wyoming, often without visiting first.

    What girls encountered once they got there, according to 22 women who spent time at the ranch as teens from 2007 to 2020, was a nightmare of hard labor and humiliating punishments that left some injured and others with post-traumatic stress disorder.

    In recent interviews and court filings, the women described injuries to their hands, legs and feet, including cuts, frostbite and in one case torn ligaments requiring surgery, from hauling heavy metal pipes to irrigate fields and carrying bales of hay they said weighed over 50 pounds. The girls built barbed wire fences, dragged carcasses of dead animals into a pile and were driven around the county to clean churches and recreation centers, they said.

    The troubled teen industry — a constellation of private boarding schools, boot camps, ranches and wilderness programs — is estimated to serve more than 50,000 children each year. If the programs, like Trinity Teen Solutions and Triangle Cross Ranch, don’t take government funding, they are exempt from federal regulations. While many states, including Wyoming, set their own licensing standards, they vary widely and are not sufficient to protect children, advocates say.

    $6,000 grand a month per kid. Insane. Not to mention the free child labor. How is this not shut down?
