I'd only be guessing.
The staff finally told us that we were going home. We were split up between those who lived on the East coast, and those who lived on the West coast. we were sent to 2 different churches in other states. Once we arrived in Lima, Ohio, we were told that our parents were coming to get us. We could talk to whomever we wanted to at this point. So of course the conversations began for the first time with those whom we had never been allowed to talk to. I had known 2 girls when I arrived at HH because I had gone to Christian school with them at one point, but I was never allowed to speak to them ever at HH. Now we were free to talk with one another.
After about 4 hours, Mr. Williams finally showed up with an announcement. He told us that a past student had filed child abuse charges against him and the school. Mr. Williams also told us that child welfare was on the way to pick us all up and take us to foster care homes. He told us that's why he had to get us out of state and send us home. He then left and I never saw him again.

It truly is. Yet parents are buying this book and thinking that because they're "experts"....

All because they're totally ignorant about how a shepherd treats their sheep.

They read "Suffer the little children" but then ignored the rest of the sentence. nt

Precisely. I was using it as a pun, but I felt explaining it would defang its effect. nt

It's mostly a matter of emailing them or starting a thread in their discussion forums

They can, like many choose not to sell porn for instance, or like no one puts real news mags

That's better yet. So he's self-published. I think it's time for a class action law suit
