Or even in the UK?

I think they are US only. I've read some very bad things about them (will try to find a link).

If you google boot camp teenagers abuse you get loads of horrible stories. I wouldn't risk sending any child.

Hmmm those were thought-provoking links, moon. Particularly interesting where it showed that there is no difference in re-offending rates between the kids who go to boot camp and the ones that don't. So parents are paying all that money and risking death or injury to their child and it doesn't even do anything to their behaviour. Sounds like a major con to me.
