Whitmore Closing? Only 3 "Students" Enrolled!
BuzzKill:
I wanted to add something here -
I in no way mean to diminish or discredit what the Whitmore families have accomplished.
It is real and significant and worthwhile.
I only meant to point out it will not be over with the closing of Whitmore.

There does seem to be a pattern of that happening in the "troubled-teen" industry.

Watch and see.
Soon you guys will be the old timers - and there will be a whole new crop of outraged teens and parents - All suggesting that everything you are doing, be done.
You'll have to patiently educate them on the history, and explain how you did this and that - and the result was - what ever it will be - but it didn't & won't stop them.
Just ask Susan - or any Trekker.
They can tell you just how it will be.

Yep, as long as kids are a cash crop there will always be predators.
At best, one can hope the new generation of sucker parents demand more for their buck but I'm afraid the odds of that happening are slim to none. The teen help industry thrives on desperate parents who can be conned out their last dime to fix a problem that in most cases does not even exist.

There are new laws in Utah that just won't allow the Sudweeks to rename and reinvent themeselves there in Utah. They will have to move elsewhere, and that could happen. Happens all the time in this industry. And, the Referral Diva will most probably keep making her BUCKS by sending kids the Suds's way.
A guilty verdict in the criminal case will make to move to another State a lot more difficult though. And the Suds better know they are being WATCHED and will be WATCHED a long long time.

Buzzkill,
What question would the Whitmore parents have for "Susan?" Are you are referring to Sue Scheff of Pure? I am certain that none of the Whitore Parents would set up a business to make money by ever referring any children to one of these abusive programs. Our children ended up at Whitmore because of Sue Scheff's recommendation and her referral business. We have lots of questions for HER, but she ain't talking!
