Each year, thousands of young adults deemed out of control—suffering from depression, addiction, anxiety, and rage—are carted off against their will to remote wilderness programs and treatment facilities across the country. Desperate parents of these \"troubled teens\" fear it's their only option. The private, largely unregulated behavioral boot camps break their children down, a damnation the children suffer forever.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcclaimed journalist Kenneth R.

In Troubled, Rosen unspools the stories of four graduates on their own scarred journeys through the programs into adulthood. Based on three years of reporting and more than one hundred interviews with other clients, their parents, psychologists, and health-care professionals, Troubled combines harrowing storytelling with investigative journalism to expose the disturbing truth about the massively profitable, sometimes fatal, grossly unchecked redirection industry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNot without hope, Troubled ultimately delivers an emotional, crucial tapestry of coming of age, neglect, exploitation, trauma, and fraught redemption.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 372g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 148 x 217 x 27 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781542007887                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kenneth R.
