Isabelle Zehnder continues to "update" her Whitmore Academy BLOG; and she continues to make false statments.
Zehnder's statement, "Isabelle Zehnder did her homework" gives the false impression that she writes the truth.
Zehnder's "version" of the WHITMORE RUNAWAY BOYS is a good example:
She writes: "This mother enticed three theens to run away from this program."
FACT: the three boys ran away from Whitmore Academy-on their own, and had IN FACT, been hiding out at the home of Whitmore emploee's property for two days.
She writes: "An apartment awaited them," giving the impression that this mother may have provided these run-aways an apartment.
She writes: "They went to the airport and were flown half way across the county to a music festival that may be consider a drug fest.
FACT: these run-aways were going to the APARTMENT of a former Whitmore student, Chris Gentile in Chicago--who assisted these boys in their plans to run away from Whitmore.
Chris Gentile made the plans, and travel arrangement to attend the music festival in Tennessee.
FACT: Chris; Gentile had recently assisted another Whitmore student, Alex, in her escape from Whitmore Academy; and he safefly aided her in safely returning to her family in California.
She writes: SPECIFICALLY she accuses Isabelle Zehnder of getting a financial kickback of some sort from referring children to programs.
FACT: NO WHERE is such a statement written.
She writes: That all of her (Isabelle Zehnder's) work on CAICA has been "pro-bono." That may be a true statement. BUT, Zehnder does promote her new company Positive Family Solutions on CAICA, which is a FOR PROFIT company; and Zehnder does charge fees for her "coaching services."
Reportedly--Zehnder's fee is $2,500 for 3 months. This "fee" reportedly includes 1 hour coaching per week for the child; and l hour coaching for the parent PER WEEK. All coaching is done over the telephone.
Therefore: Zehnder's statement, "Isabelle does not charge for her services..." is misleading.
She writes: That the only complaint Sue Scheff /PURE "has ever received was from this mother mentioned in the article...."
FACT: another Whitmore family submitted a statement to ISAC, which criticizes Sue Scheff, and warns other parents not to use Scheff/PURE: "Statement From the Mother and Grandmother of a Former Student."
It could be asked: What is Zehnder's "vested interest" in attacking this parent with so many false statements?
The many other FALSE STATEMENTS made by Isabelle Zehnder in reference to the criminal charges against Cheryl Sudweeks, the Plea Bargain, have been discussed in detail by Zen Agent on another thread and will not be repeated in detail here.
BUT: it does not appear that Isabelle Zehnder has gotten many of the FACTS incorrect in this Whitmore Academy BLOG.
Zehnder could easily check court documents and truthfully report that Cherly Sudweeks WAS CRIMINALLY CHARGED with abuse, hazing against 4 children who attended Whitmore Academy. Zehnder could have reported HONESTLY that Cheryl Sudweeks accepted a PLEA BARGAIN, and agreed to not operate a facility in Juab County, Utah for life.
Zehnder could check court documents, and know that this parent she is bashing is not a part of the civil case against Whitmore Academy/Sudweeks and does not--as she writes "have a vested interest in attempting to discredit both Isabelle Zehnder and CAICA, as well as other child advocates and groups."
As a matter of fact---WHERE does this parent Zehnder is bashing even mention ADVOCATES in the PLURAL? Does Zehnder have the "weak hope" of having other professional child advocates join her in this vicious attack against a parent?
