--- Quote ---I have two toddlers, and they are doing just fine. And i will never, ever send them away anywhere unless they start smoking crack (which they never will, because i know the right way to prevent that, and it's not total abstinence and imposed stigma on all drugs..), and without investigating the living shit out of wherever they are going. If my kid is acting out and failing school, i'll know how to deal with it without shelling out a hundred thousand odd dollars to some rednecks in north georgia, or anyone anywhere for that matter. It's not a tough problem, as long as you dont shoulder all the responsibility on your kid and change the way YOU, as a parent behave, treat and support your kid. I will never have a need for a kiddie-repair warehouse because i am educated and responsible enough to know how to raise a kid on my own, and deal with their problems as they come along.

Guest: I can't wait until your naive fairytale world comes crashing down on you. And based on your pompous and oh-so foolish attitude your kids will be prime candidates for Bucci in a few years.
You think you're the perfect "Teflon" parent? You're fucked and so are your kids. I wish them well with a fuckstick like you as a parent.

I think everyone is coming down a little hard on rippedoff. If the story is true, and I have no reason to believe it isn't, she was ripped off, just like hundreds of other parents have been by Bucchi and his crew. Parents often come to these schools in an emotional turmoil, desperate to try anything. They see an attractive webpage presentation promising miracles, they talk to admissions people who lie through their teeth, they tour the facility and don't realize how choreographed everything is, and hear more lies and bullshit from staff and kids who are programmed to hue the company line and know what will happen to them if they don't. At this point, a parent will believe just about anything that holds hope for turning around a recalcitrant kid. Sure, they should do research, but when an ed con, who is supposed to be knowledgeable and ethical, recommends a school, and everybody at the school seems likable and believeable, what are they supposed to do? This decision is driven by emotion, not logic. How 'bout a little empathy, folks.

So many of us were in Rippedoff's shoes so we can sympathize and empathize. I hope those coming down so hard on Rippedoff NEVER have to go what we went through, but when you stand in judgement of other people without walking in their shoes just remember the old saying, "What goes around, comes around."

Operating reports have been filed for July and August now...so it appears the little 'push' from the US Trustees office worked.

Comes now the Georgia Department of Revenue by and through counsel Attorney General Thurbert Baker has filed a motion to dismiss Chapter 11 or convert to Chapter 7 citing that the Debtor is "completely ignoring the responsibilities imposed by the Georgia Revenue Code". Is someone waking up? So now there are two entities(U.S. Trustee Office) that have filed to dismiss or convert.
This is really thoughtful of Georgia. Buccellato owes them money. They wouldn't shut him down to protect the children, but now here they come, all screaming about
the way he conducts his finances..."He's operating all the other schools on the property" and they all want "accountability 'NOW' ??? From Buccellato?
