Brat Camp: Finale

Day 42, 2 days before Christmas Jada is still complaining. The first adventure today is walking a rope line between trees. Everybody does fine until Lauren gets up and with Jada as her support. She falls but not to the ground.
Jada thinks the walk is some sort of metaphor but she’s not sure, she just doesn’t care.
Derek chickens out again so they give him the old fall back into my arms which he does.
Christmas morning the kids wake up to stockings even the Shawn who’s Jewish is forced to celebrate.
The day is horrible and getting worse so the kids go hiking. They are told to hike alone to a ridge. When they go at the end they see their parents and loved ones, surprise it’s graduation day for them all. WAIT! Not so fast Jada. Jada is told she is not ready to leave, she is also told that everyone else has graduated. The staff, who keeps calling her Robin, does not believe she has grown tell her so. She is at first in disbelief and then breakdowns.
She confirms that she needs to stop her behavior and goes to the ridge. She sees her parents and then stops running and waits for her parents to meet her as she cries all the way.
While talking to their parents the brats all convince their parents they will act right and beg never to come back. Frank had a nice speech; it seemed a bit forced though.
Back home, have they really changed?
Shawn was a drug user but he has stopped and he got a job. His parents are happy.
Isaiah has half a red head and his parents were happy but a written update said “6 months after Sagewalk, Isaiah was arrested for allegedly spray-painting racial slurs on a neighbor’s house. A trial is pending. If, convicted, Isaiah could face a maximum of 2 years in jail and a $15,000 fine.”
Derek stopped cussing, his parents still believe in ADHD.
Heather is better and likes boarding school
Frank is not as angry.
Nick is nice to his twin and has a tutor.
Lauren looks hot, and she is better.
Damn a commercial break.
Jada went to boarding school after but since your not allowed cell phones or email she left now she is in public school. She has smoked pot for “social reasons” her parents caught her although Jada lied and said they haven’t. Her parents said it was a failure. The update was basically like the TV Guide update that I wrote in the last post about directly below, one thing extra the boat incident injured another teen girl the most.
Lexie also went to boarding school, bad parents, she’s back on horses.

2 out of 9 went worse not bad.

    Of course she was complaining, but opposite the boy who died at Sagewalk this august she is alive.

    A mother saw this show. She believed that it could help him and then she lost her son.

    ABC was fools to market a entreprise as dangerous as wilderness therapy, when all know that teenagers are dying out there every single year.

    How many lives could have been spared?

    Look at a victim list all too long. All that suffering for nothing!

  2. Bad parents always have always used these camps to do the job they failed at.

    All of these kids would have done much better if they did some talk or group therapy but that would require good parents.
