I write about my own personal negative experience with WWASPS because *it is my own experience*. I can verify my opinions, both from my own dealings with the company and from the personal experiences of my kid. I, like Carey, think that sending a kid away and hiring others to fix the problem is an irreversible, alienating, demoralizing decision, ripe with abuse.
If this is the foremost "anti-behavior modification" site, then I think we all have done a pretty fine job in presenting an enormous variety of food-for-thought information. We give real-life experiences of WWASPS, military schools, Straight, CEDU, and all sorts of other smaller "schools". In fact, I've been impressed lately with the philosophical and researched opinions from folks who object to any sort of "lock the little darlings up until they 'get it'" attitude that is prevalent with the WWASPies who post here.
The sarcastic post from the "Ed Consultant" is so transparent that I immediately thought of those past posts, calling somebody "Stupid Head". Wow...second grade stuff. Of course you can't post something saying your client-parents are real dumb-shits for believing your more-expensive recommendations on the same board you profess to lead them to. Jeez... Sounds about the intellectual caliber of Ken Kay when he tells the media "they're all liars". Intellectual level equals your age, Mr. Kay?...like about 50 or so?
We are apparently making a difference somewhere folks, or WWASPS wouldn't feel the need to counter-attack. Keep up the good work!
