El programa: Sumisión, sectas y secuestros

I would absolutely rate this a 10 out of 10. Aside from the absolute cruelty that has happened and still happens to thousands upon thousands of teens, the filmmaker was extremely well prepared and this was an amazing portrayal of these particular cons, cults and kidnappings. I am very glad that she, along with the others in the documentary series, brought this issue to the fore. Investigative, emotional and riveting, throughout all three episodes. The storytelling was done very well, and as disturbing as it was, it really shines a light on these toxic and dangerous programs. I have a few ideas of how, as a group, we could try to shut these places down, so reach out to me if you'd like. I was a woman, I want to see these people pay for their evils. Thank you for bringing this issue to the public. These programs have been going on for far too long. I was born in the late 60s, and I remember some back then. Parents are also brainwashed into thinking these programs are good. These people are swindlers , sociopaths and con men. I want to see justice. This Netflix documentary will certainly do that.

Documentaries are so alike that we start feel like once we've watched one we've watched them all. There was just something different about this one.. maybe its because it was created by the people who went through these horrid things. It has a personal touch to it that no one else would really be able to shine light upon.

Even though 3 episodes is plenty and there wasn't really much else to be said at the moment, I was left wanting more. I want to know if justice was served or if any of the children there today can be set free.

I hope this show go viral so the people behind the camps can be stopped and all current victims can be saved.

Really skillfully done, and surprisingly very hopeful and endearing throughout. These girls could be anyone you know, and they have such beautiful, strong spirits. I'm so glad to see that hasn't been ripped from them completely. I loved the heavy dashes of F you: the inside church audio, the gutsy phone calls to past workers, and the One Way or Another part. ;) How brazen of these absolute criminals to leave behind all their evidence, that really speaks to how above the law they feel they are. I'm glad it was all there to be found, I wish happiness and abundance to all who survived, and anxiously await the downfall of every wretched person who contributed to this nightmare.

As someone who was to a school with the exact same structure (Cross Creek in Utah), from 1997-1998, I can confirm that every detail about the schools setup is completely accurate. I never experienced abuse, or saw anyone being abused, to the degree these women did, but I do believe that it existed in other, similar "schools". From levels 1-6, with the privileges of makeup and shaving being earned after level 3, to the school's education structure, with independent learning and the requirement that we pass all exams with 80%+ to advance in a subject.

I was lucky. I had a wonderful group leader/therapist who cared immensely. I learned so much and grew emotionally, but I can also see how those that didn't have the same experience would have left with so much trauma. And it didn't mean that the bulk of my experience wasn't anywhere from terrifying to extremely uncomfortable.

I'm glad that the parts of these programs that are corrupt are being exposed, and that their insane shield of secrecy has been pierced. I hope this brings some sense of peace to the many that need it.

We don't have kids, so I can't truly put myself in the place of a parent, but I was absolutely stunned watching this latest docuseries from Netflix. It boggles the mind that parents could be so easily duped and willingly turn their teenagers, no matter how troubled, over to these grifters and malcontents. Compelling and riveting, the 3-episode series describes the psychological and physiological torture teenagers were put under in the name of helping them straighten out at a "behavioral modification" boarding school. But it's not just one school and it's still happening. I'm thinking about the show days after finishing and horrified that this type of child abuse happens way too frequently.
