I agree this is true with some parents. But some programs, like WWASPS, are very parent involved. They come back to the facilities in groups every couple months and staff the seminars. They are required to attend seminars themselves. They might go into it with good intentions, but over time some of them are changed, significantly. They become zelouts who start trying to send other kids, who embrace the jargon and bullshit seminar "tools" and use it like a new religion. When one kid graduates after a couple years and they sucked all they can out of the experience they send their younger kid. Afterall, any kid could benefit from the program. (or so some of them say) I am not saying this is every parent. But it can be if they are not careful. It happens slowly, but after a certain point they become part of the cult and you can no longer reach them.
