Title: How Can Parents Do This?
Post by: spots on August 03, 2003, 12:36:00 PM

This is the 27-minute marketing video from WWASPS.  I have asked myself from the beginning, "Who in their right mind would do this?"

I still have trouble with parents signing the contract, believing strangers about the horrible hateful lies these parents' kids are telling, imagining that no contact for months with the kids who were eating at the dinner table with the family only days before they were sent away could possibly be "right"...

If you want to take the time, you can see how pictures of facilities can be deceiving, how testimonials of a very few folks can be powerful, and how the Program can be marketed as something for everyone, when it is really something for no one except corporate profit-takers.

Ok, I suppose in the same way that the idle rich used to hire a taxidermist "save" their favorite pampered pooch...

THat video is nothing but trash, lies, and those brain washing parents. THey were most likely paid to do that to, and get a free month tuition. I think the video is nothing short of crap.

This post is false!!!!!
My child was one of the "actors" at one of the schools featured in this video.  They were given clothing that they never saw again, put in rooms that were not normally used for what they pretended they were, told to smile and look happy, schooled by staff that were acting like teachers, sitting around on couches looking like it was a prep school, etc..  These videos were taken by WWASP, staged by WWASP and spread by WWASP.
