TroubledTeenSearch.com is an attempt by a concerned group of education professionals, school administrators and parents of troubled teens to fight the many fraudulent and deceptive web sites that prey on vulnerable parents who are desperately seeking schools or programs for their troubled teen.

Unlike the obvious spam email that asks for your personal information in order to collect millions of dollars from Nigeria, these web sites to which we are referring above are not as easy to identify. They use deceptive marketing practices hoping to dupe uninformed parents into giving out their personal information (name, address, phone numbers, name of child, and problems the child is having) only to see that information sold to admissions agencies that pay fees or kickbacks. These charlatans promise access to school listings and other information; however they deceive parents into giving private information and then they sell it to their clients.

Unfortunately, when tricked into using these agencies, the parent thinks they are receiving good advice… in reality they were mistaken. These web site operators hope to take advantage of unsuspecting desperate parents by selling their information to high-pressure sales organizations who refer only to the highest bidding school. The parents think that they are getting good counsel and advice when in reality they are being ripped off and taken advantage of. At TroubledTeenSearch.com we are striving to prevent this from getting worse. We hope to change this trend and help eliminate these operators.

TroubledTeenSearch.com is devoted to the parents of troubled teens, providing free access to schools and articles for troubled teens, as well as professional educational coaching. With TroubledTeenSearch.com you can view, read about or visit the school or program website by using our large list of schools or you can request information for specific school(s) of your choice, or hire one of our professional Educational Consultants who will help lead you to the appropriate school or program.
