HAILEYALEXISDEVEREUX
“Well, tell me a little about yourself. What’s your name?”
My full name is Hailey Alexis Devereux. My mom’s name is Hannah and she wanted me to have a first name that started with an H like hers, so she came up with Hailey. Alexis is a family name on my Dad’s side I think, I’m not sure I’ve never really met them. Most people call me Hailey but some of my close friends call me Hails.
“Next question, how has your High School career gone thus far?”
I go to a private Christian school. So far I have done really well in school. I take advanced placement classes and maintain a 4.0 GPA. But, I guess, it’s not like I have a choice in the matter. If I didn’t my parents would freak out. I liked it, my teachers were nice, for the most part anyway. I know a lot of people there iven if I am not good friends with most of them.
“What did you do when you weren't in school? Any hobbies or sports, anything like that?”
When I’m not in school I danced. I live, breathe and sleep dance. Dance is everything to me. Other than that, sometimes on the weekend my girlfriends from Ballet class and I would go shopping.
“Family and friends are pretty important. Tell me about them. How are your relationships with them?”
I love my parents. They are both very supportive of my dancing. Unfortunately, I don’t get to see them very often because they are very busy with their jobs.
I’m a very social person, so I know a lot of the people at my school. Would I call them my friends, not really, we just don’t have stuff in common. The people I am friends with and usually spend my free time with are the guys and girls I have dance class with. We all love dance and just understand each other and what we go through to be the best dancers we can be.
“Thank you for sharing that with me. So those are your family and friends, what about yourself? Describe yourself to me.”
Well, let’s see aside from the obvious I have blisters on my feet constantly from dancing so much. I am usually outgoing and friendly. I am not fond of shrinks. My Dad says I am underweight, but I don’t know what he is talking about. I am not underweight, I am fat. I have got to lose weight, I will never be a great dancer if I am fat.
“Other then the reason your here, at Blackwood Academy, have you had any other issues with law enforcement?”
I got caught trying to buy cigarettes a few times. Luckily, my parents give me enough spending money I was able to pay the fines without them knowing. After those few times, I just paid older people to buy them for me and it worked like a charm.
When my Dad told me I was going to be sent away for treatment, I was so angry at him. I walked to a boutique I like and tried to steal some very expensive jewelry. I had never tried something like that before, it felt good though, like a rush.
“What is the worst thing you’ve done? Why did you feel the need to do that?”
When I stole the jewelry. I know it was wrong, okay, I get it. I was pissed off and wasn’t thinking. I wanted to get back at my Dad for sending me to treatment. As you can see, it didn’t work out very well.
"What the one things you're most proud of?"
My dancing. I love dance and I am good at it. I love making people happy when I dance. And it’s one of the few times I see my parents- even if they are in the audience and I’m on stage. I often get the principle roles. I hope I can be a part of the American Ballet Company someday.
"Other then your trouble with law enforcement, do you have any vices or addictions?"
I like to smoke a lot, it helps me with my weight and stress. Other then that, nothing..
“If you could change one thing about your life what would it be?”
I want my parents to get back together. It’s my fault they got divorced. They were always fighting over me and my weight. If I could only make my dad think like my mom we would have no problems and could all be together again.
“What criminal act got you sent here and who recommended it?”
When my Dad told me I was going to be sent away for treatment, I was so angry at him. I walked to a boutique I like and tried to steal some very expensive jewelry. My dad, who is a lawyer, made a deal with the judge. If I go here and graduate from Bad then they will expunge the shoplifting charge from my record.
“Do think that you deserve to be here?”
No, I think it’s harsh considering all I did was try to steal some jewelry. Yeah, I get it was expensive, but so what! It was one time. I know my dad wants you all to help with the eating disorder he thinks I have. That will be hard considering I don’t have one.
"Tell me about your life before Blackwood Academy contacted you, what led up to your stay here."
I was born while my parents were in France, my father’s birthplace. Because of this, I have dual citizenship in France and the USA. My life started out well. I am the only child of Hannah and Lucas Devereux and they love me very much. They spoil me with material things as they have a lot of money. I was raised mostly by nannies, as my parents were always busy with work. When I was five years old mom signed me up for ballet lessons. I loved it and did very well.
While I was in elementary school, I continued to excel in ballet. When I preformed I usually got the lead role. I had many friends from ballet and school, as I was a very social child. I did well in all of my classes and the teachers loved me.
By the time I reached middle school, I felt an enormous amount of pressure from my parents to be perfect. I am in all advanced placement classes at school and my parents freaked out if I got less than a 4.0. I felt pressure to do well in ballet and knew my parents wanted me to have the lead role. I did not want to disappoint them. My ballet performances were the one time I actually saw my parents, as they made it a point to go to as many as they could. I felt horrible when I did not get the lead role a few times, and my mother made a comment about I weight. After that, I really watched what I ate and began smoking to help keep my weight down.
When I reached my Freshman year of high school my life changed dramatically. I started smoking more and was caught a few times trying to buy them underage. My nanny began to notice that I was underweight and brought this to the attention of my parents. Dad agreed with the nanny. Mom disagreed with Dad and clamed that I was fine, and was just keeping my body in shape for ballet. They started having many fights over this, and decided by the time I started my Sophomore year, to get separated. They fought over who should have custody of me.
A typical day for me was waking up at 5am and having a cup of coffee, diet pills and a piece of fruit for breakfast. I worked out and practiced ballet. Then went to school from 7:25 am to 2:30pm. I skipped lunch and just has an energy drink to keep myself going. After that I did homework from 3-4pm, went to a group dance lesson from 4:30-6:30, then had dinner with the girls from dance. None of them seemed to notice or mind that I didn’t eat much for dinner, usually just part of a very small salad with no dressing to add extra fat. Then I had a private lesson from 7-9pm. After that, I went home and usually practiced at home for an hour and then started more homework. I usually went to bed around 1 or 2 am before getting up and doing it all over again.
My father now has primary custody of me. He made me go see a psychologist 2 weeks ago, who recommended I be sent to away against my will to get help for my ‘eating disorder’. After seeing the psychologist and being told I was going to go to a treatment center, I went to the mall and shoplifted and ended up here.
