I think the bottom line is that whether they needed the program or not, only good can come from it if you open yourself up and participate fully. As Whooter said before, programs are good for all kids whether or not they actually "needed it" or not. To close your minds to the awsome experiences of a program is to remain ignorant. Are you really going to try to tell us that if you went to all of the LifeSteps you wouldn't be a better person, even if you felt like you didn't need it? Let's face it, these programs are becoming more and more mainstream and with people like me, Danny and Whooter promoting them, we will insure that every kid gets a chance to be in a program. You few extremists can't change that inevitability with your little website and your whining.
