1. Who is P.U.R.E.? (THE LIES, BUT SEE BELOW FOR THE TRUTH)
P.U.R.E. is an organization that offers parents resources in regards to schools and programs for pre-teens and teens. P.U.R.E. was founded by a parent who recognized a need of a change in this industry. During her search for her own child, there was a feeling of loss and confusion. Many of the Educational Consultants are political, lack understanding and compassion, as well as are very costly.
With this, there is a need for a service as P.U.R.E. to help parents know they are not alone. P.U.R.E. is here to help you sort through the confusion during a desperate time.

TRUTHFUL QUESTION: WHO IS P.U.R.E. REALLY?
TRUTHFUL ANSWER: P.U.R.E. is really Sue Scheff, a middle aged wealthy mother, who is divorced, who sues other parents and gets sued. Her partner is Marie Peart who was related to Robert Browning Lichfield the founder of WWASP. Marie Peart was one of WWASP's top markerters until she divorced from the Browning family and hooked up with Sue Scheff. Sue Scheff was a top marketing agent for WWASP, for almost 2 years and at least 8 months into forming her P.U.R.E. agency. It is true that she placed her daughter in Carolina Springs Academy owned a WWASP school. She now uses this experience to get money from parents to place their kids in the Sue Scheff version of WWASP.
Sue Scheff's misrepresentation "Go ahead, our service is no cost to you!" is a lie. Sue and Marie make money on parent referrals by having the program charge the parent an up-front "administrative" fee. That fee, in the thousands, then gets paid to Sue Scheff and Marie Peart through P.U.R.E.
Until Sue Scheff was sued by WWASP for fraud she had on her web page that she has a degree in business. The judge ordered her to remove the lie, which she did. Sue really has a high school diploma and so does her partner Marie. Neither have any training or education in any subject relating to children and families, the same as Lichfield and the same with their programs.
