--- Quote from: ""Guest"" ---Yeah, the program Morava she referred to as "oddly" being accused of being abusive.
This lady is a piece of work IMO. Another parent who thinks they are experts in raising other people's kids. I saw them on Bill O'Reilly. Of course, he had not done his homework. He should have had Maia Szalvitz as a guest instead.
Let's just hope the same thing doesn't happen with another program parent turned book-writer named Sue Scheff. That would really put me over the top.

Bitch can hardly even spell, much less write a book. She has been "writing" that thing since I can remember.... it's a "I am writing a book" tactic to make her look educated, IMHO.
But seriously... What else did you expect from O'Reilly, or any journalist nowadays. blah... Turn off your TV for a year. Just do it. You'll be surprised at just how much your perception of the world changes without "information" being constantly jammed down your throat.

OK, so journalists are bad, TVs are bad, and all prgrams are evil. Do we have this straight? And, since she agrees with you--in spite of so much evidence to the contrary--Maia Szalivitz is good. Hmmm.
Have you read the book Come Back? Do you advocate turning off your mind as well as your TV? The book is well written and insightful.
It's OK to be respectful to people whose ideas are different than your own. It can even make the world a better place. Certainly, it would improve the Internet.

Some people see this book as nothing but propaganda for a dangerous unregulated industry and for that reason alone, would not even consider reading it, much less purchasing it to benefit the authors.
Out of control teens from dysfunctional middle-to-upper-class homes is what this industry thrives on.
It's appalling this mother apparently chooses to exploit the CURRENT lack of safeguards to protect children and parents from exploitation and fraud in the name of private "treatment". No regulations means UNSAFE regardless of whether program owners, ed cons, parents, referral agents and any others "get" that or not.
Thank God this situation is about to change and all these entreprenuers and opportunists cashing in on children and families will soon be looking for another way to make a buck or at least have to have a lot more money to invest to ensure they are in compliance with tougher laws and regulations governing their private for-profit "businesses".

Just for you people that don't know Mike Linderman, you shouldn't judge him unless you know him. What happened with the girl that committed suicide at SCLA had nothing to with his fault. He is also not a pervert, but a caring man who wants to help people pull themselves out of shit they shouldn't have become involved in in the first place. So unless you know him and what he does personally, keep your mouths shut. He started to help with the Whispering Pines program, but chose to take time off to write a set of books for Harper Collins Publishing. Unless you are 100% positive about the things you are saying, then don't say them at all.
