Ok people, I think this is all getting out of hand. I do not understand what the big deal is of arguing back and forth on a website. Some of us on here are adults and others of us are teenagers. Either way, where has all of the maturity gone to? It is like old people cracking on young people and vice versa. What is this world coming to? There is so much more to life than reading and writing on the internet. We are all being hypocrits in this world when we are accusing each other of stupid things yet all that this is..is simply the same thing in a different way. Humans are humans. That is all. There is nothing in this world that is perfect, and nothing ever will be. People live their own lives, and it should be left at that. Look at it in this light, if there was unsatisfaction with the Whitmore, then the parents would take their kids out of the school. If there was abuse, then the kids would all gang together and do something to get away. Teenagers these days are rebellious, and before half of them went to the Whitmore, they were, and so if there was something going on that should not be, then they would of course rebel. Kids would not go home, go back, go on trips, go back to work at the Whitmore and so forth if there were things such as abuse going on. I mean that is simply common sense. Then look at this, any kid that goes to a baording school or such, and is taken out of the environment and home that they are used to, does not like the new situation. This in turn will lead them to say anything or do anything they can to go back home. For instance, all of the kids that leave early are new, and dont give anything a chance. The people that run the Whitmore, are the nicest people you could ever meet, and it surprises me that anyone could even talk like this without meeting them. I mean, look at their family. Their family is such an inspiration and have led such an amazing life that most people cannot even dream of having. Sometimes, you just need to take time out and look at the other side. The Sudweeks do not have to do this, and if they did not like it, they would not do it. It is not a job to them, it is their life. What do you think is going to happen when people live in a home with teenagers that are looked upon as troubled and not good? The community usually is judgemental and does not take time to get to know any of them. Anywhere you go in the world, a place with teenagers is not going to be viewed upon very well, and so people then things start to come from these judgements. Trust me, the kids at the Whitmore are the most wonderful kids you could ever meet, and the Sudweeks are the most selfless and caring people you could meet as well. This world is full of hateful people who do not know what to do with themselves; such as the saying, "misery loves company." So just think twice about it, the Sudweeks are not bad, and nobody is perfect either. Just think for a moment before you become rude and judgemental.

(I was being rude and such on here, but that is not the thing to do, and somewhere along the road, someone has to be the better man and come to their senses, and so I am trying to do so. I know that if I were in the position that you all were when it comes to not liking the Whitmore, and if I did not know the people, I might have done the same thing with only hearing and knowing about all of the assumptions and accusations going on.)

I have been to the Whitmore several times.  I have met the Sudweeks.  I think you need to take a look at what you are saying.  The Sudweeks are not taking these troubled kids out of the goodness of their hearts.  They are being paid lots of money, which I'm sure allows their family to live like they do.  

I agree that everything is not perfect, but abusing kids is a little more than a mistake.  Lying about the services they provide is not a mistake.  Kids not having, at least, the equivalent of a high school education is not a mistake.  Kids not being fed is not a mistake.  Having, so called, group counseling led by a non perfessional till all hours of the morning is not a mistake.  And I could continue on.

The whole point being, that, if you are going to advertise and take money for doing certain things, you better make sure you do them, or suffer the consequences, when you get caught.

As far as physical abuse, I don't know about where you live, but in California that's called assault and battery.  If physical abuse happens to only one child out of hundred, it is still wrong, and it is not a mistake or imperfection, not when you are taking money to provide a safe environment, among other things.

I do beleive the Sudweeks know exactly what they are doing.

ok, well you are very entitled to your opinion, but telling that to a student is not the way to get your opinion across to me. I am speaking th truth, and I do not understand why Leah is so bitter. She has been forgiven, and she was actually talked about the other day in how everyone misses her, and what a great help she was here. Whoever makes rude comments does not know Leah. So, I do not understand that.

Telling what to a student?  How would you suggest she 'get her opinion across to you'?
