Consider the kids that hadn't yet figured out they were being given a selfless gift by their parents. Those few students took advantage of their "freedom" in the same way they did it at home. It's not about bad parenting - it's about BEING a parent that did something about the behavior when it became too much for them to handle at home.

Oh, give me a friggin' break, woman! You may have forgotten that most of the people you're talking to are around your own age with grown kids of our own. How DARE you call this torture a "selfless gift!" How awful hard it must be for you to write those checks. Oh! You poor poor baby!

Tell ya what. You switch places with your kid for, say, just six months; 1/3 to 1/2 the usual stay. And if you aren't dead, insane or repentant by then, you come on back here and tell us all about it. Mean while, don't come around here looking for sympathy, you're making me sick.

You're joking, right? :roll:
Hey Don, do you have any memory of what Staff said after the great revolt at the church building next door to the Cincinnati program?


No drug, not even alcohol, causes the fundamental ills of society. If we're looking for the sources of our troubles, we shouldn't test people for drugs, we should test them for stupidity, ignorance, greed and love of power.

I want to share my personal definition of "judgment."  TO JUDGE IS TO COMPARE SOMEONE ELSE'S BEHAVIOR OR THINKING AGAINST YOUR OWN, WITH A RESULTING OPINION THAT YOU HOLD.



We "JUDGE" when our ego needs a boost.



When you find yourself judging people, look at what parts of yourself that you have yet to discover and/or accept.  :wink:

O K! If that's what it takes to keep on being a true believer, well then ... O K!!

BUT, in the more commonly accepted reality, this usually works for the rest of us:
"to form an opinion about something through careful weighing of evidence and testing of premises."

When WWASP says they have never been sucessfully sued, it's essentially the same as OJ claiming innocence because he was able to spend more money than God on his legal defense.

From Tico Times, just last January.
http://www.ticotimes.net/archive/01_17_03_2.htm
"allegations of psychological and physical abuse - including pinning students' arms behind their backs or sentencing them to 12 hours of solitary confinement on their knees (known as Observational Placement, or O.P.) - have prompted authorities to raid or investigate affiliated programs in Mexico, the Czech Republic and Utah - all three of which are now closed."


The only maxim of a free government ought to be to trust no man living with power to endanger the public liberty.
-- John Adams, (1772)

FaceKhan:
I suppose having outstanding INTERPOL warrants out for the arrest of the Monrovia Academy Directors who fled the Czech Republic when they were charged with child cruelty and unlawful imprisonment would not be a substantiated abuse case.

Thats right everyone is out to get WWASP because they are the only self-less, caring people in the world. They will just hug you to death for about 30k of your parents money.

I hear Utah still uses a firing squad, I wonder if Ken Kay and the Lichfields qualify.
