What is the criteria used by Sue Scheff in determining that schools she refers to are "good?"

Good question.  Educational Consultants are certified, plus they must have a college degree to do what they do.  

Sue Scheff of PURE has neither and does not have personal (did not have a kid in one of the schools she refers to)  

She's built a business on scaring people away from WWASPS schools - even though CEDU, ASPEN EDUCATION GROUP, PROVO CANYON and many others have the same press.

You won't get an answer from her, though.  Much to hide?

Really? That's news! Exactly what kind of degree do they have to have? And who provides certification?

What about the WWASPS parents who get free tuition for referals? Are they certified?

The legislature is to society as a physician is to the patient. If a physician ignored side effects of medications like today's legislators ignore the side effects of their legislation, the physician would be accused of malpractice. I accuse today's legislators (with rare exception) of legislative malpractice. Many of the ills that are so obvious in our society are a direct result of previous legislation. Their solution? More laws!

I agree with the statement about Ed Con's.  I contacted two different ones, representing basically the same schools.  They both had a
college degree and were licensed/certified as
educational consultants.  They were very good at what they did, even in a crunch for time.

My neighbor had her son at Cross Creek a few years ago and when I asked her about it, she asked me to talk with her son.  No ed con in the world could have done in an hour what this young man did.  It was my gut feeling that determined what was best, even though I didn't know if it would be at the time.  I still don't know, but know my kid is actually admitting to needing to be there.  Time will tell.  

Did my neighbor get money for this. Actually, she didn't.  I ended up calling them direct because she said she didn't need the money.  It was her son that convinced me, not by saying you need to do this, but by telling me about his life prior to going and what he is doing now.  He graduated in August of 2001.  
 
BTW, the two ed cons I spoke with badmouthed Cross Creek.  Come to find out the reason was that Cross Creek doesn't pay to refer to them.  Good shot!  DIdn't work.

Does Sue Scheff do the same thing?  Would she be making money if she didn't make her business a WWASPS scare site, like the previous poster said?  

Are the programs she refers to better?   I don't think so, they're just different names and not a part of WWASPS.

Understand this, Dolphin. I believe Perigaud. However, I don't think she fully understands how the whole thing works either. CCM may not have an OP room right there on campus. But the kids who are unable to reel themselves in or unwilling to go along w/ whatever happens can and do get shipped off to TB. If your son is a lot like Perri, he probably won't get the roughest treatment. But a lot of us were like that. The worst part of the whole experience years later is running into people who couldn't take it, remembering watching how they came to be so wrecked and not being able to do anything to save them.

It's really not all that pretty. Even Perrigaud will tell you that.

But, for purposes of this conversation about referals, your "referal" agent was evidently a young man who had been subject to the questionable methods employed by WWASP. Not real impresive. And how do you suppose your good neighbor might have reacted if, instead of telling you how wonderful the program worked for him he had told you that he still has nightmares? Does your neighbor have an exit plan? You should ask them about those details.

BTW, how was the seminar?

Religious controversies are always productive of more acrimony and irreconcilable hatreds than those which spring from any other cause.

probably visits the school personally and knows the individuals or corps who run them, would be my guess?

ed con...degree?  i don't recall any degree when i went to college pertaining to ed cons?  been awhile though?

these questions wouldn't be to support someone's legal agenda? now, would they?

Yea--like these schools don't put their BEST FOOT FORWARD for an ed-con visitor???  These places even fool parents.  And ed-cons WANT to be FOOLED.

Sue Scheff will tell you today...Whitmore Academy has CERTIFIED teachers and is FULLY acredited. Now you go check it out.

Tell us Sue, about legal agenda's.
Your not immune to having legal agendas, are you? You'll do what you can to set a person up for liability, if it suites your needs, won't you? You'll throw people to the wolves and stand back and watch the mauling, if it fits in with your current legal agenda, won't you? Nevermind how patient and understanding they've been with you.
What kind of person ARE you?

You'd think the people over at Whitmore might read some of this....think maybe they might need to know who their "friends" really are....poor people.

So she visits and judges from the visit that all is well.
And thousands of wwasp parents have visited and so know what a fine program wwasp is as a result.
I find this less reliable than the consistent and persistent reports of abuse and neglect coming from people who have Lived in these programs.
How bout it Sue? You got some kind of magic gift for discerning lying manipulators the rest of us lack? How can you keep defending people, proven to be abusive liars (at least were their animals are concerned)over parents and students who have very credible allegations of highly questionable and disturbing events at one of your trusted chosen few?
BTW - are you trying to set up ISAC & friends for problems and holding up Isabelle and unmarried as some kind of worthy replacement for the loss of ISAC?

Probably best if you don't, at this point. But I'm mildly surprised at all the surprise over this latest round. What did ya'll really expect?
