wow, you spu ignorance... and you're saying we have problems?
like they would say at cedu, focus on yourself... you have no idea who we are or what we did/didn't get from cedu; your bias throws your judgements way off.
when making such judgements, always remember this one thing: what's right for one person isn't necessarily right for everyone.
i'm glad to hear that you think so highly of your position in life; apparently, you got something you needed right from cedu's program. unfortunately, as you can see, this program is not so beneficial for a good amount of other people. do you want to blame it on the people? sure you can... however, most of us didn't choose to be there. you can't expect someone to change just because you're forcing them to go to therapy.. to change, you need a will; that was where cedu steps in...
cedu is supposed to motivate you to change yourself. unfortunately, because the efficiency of their closed-minded practice falls quite a bit short of that of optimal therapy, they weren't too successful in many cases. it's the "therapist"s job to help the "patient"... in a personalized way which is designed to work for the "patient", rather than a standardized method adopted to fix large groups of people at once (as we've experienced, such standardized methods will be effective some, but surely not all...)
another important thing to mention is that we all have a slightly different goal in therapy.. if you and your therapist are working toward oppositional goals, well, what do you think is going to happen?
since we are all so unique, we have to consider where others are coming from on a personal level and then figure out how to get the best results.
our learning processes are one fundamental way that we all differ.. the learning process reflects the way your brain operates on many different levels. some of us don't like to be bombarded by other people's 2nd hand moral theories. some of us cannot take people's words for such theories, so, instead, we live our lives in our own way, learning such lessons "the hard way" (these lessons are tailored specifically for us. metaphysical lessons are internally explained more thoroughly with a relevent physical example as stimulus.)
why don't you tell me this, arthur; what are you doing with your life now? what is your objective? what keeps you alive?
