    The “troubled teen industry” needs to be dismantled. I was sent to a military academy that willfully ignored abuse of students by other students for disciplinary reasons. It only got attention when a fight, sanctioned by students with higher “rank,” put a kid into a coma. I wish I’d sued when I became an adult (statute of limitations undoubtedly has passed). They allowed horrible abuse.

      IANAL but I think there are laws in place in many places that allow the statute of limitations for actions done to minors to not start ticking until they become an adult. Depending on how old you are it may still be possible.
