Ursus:
Here's the contract parents need to sign re. the Next Step for Success parent coaching sessions. Although language therein states that it is "not required," I kinda have my doubts as to how that will go down in practice. This is on page 6 of the 8-page contracts & releases bundle that Oscar posted earlier.
Note that both logos are on this contract:
-------------- • -------------- • --------------

More discussion re. the "philosophy" imparted via the Valentines' coaching endeavors can be found in this short thread; some folk may recognize some CEDU lingo:

--- Quote from: "Paul St. John" ---If you opened a food establishment of any type, would you hire employees of an establishment known for poisoning people, and feel completely like all is well, and good, because in your new establishment, poisoning people is not part of the new system that you have trained them in?
--- End quote ---
I don’t think many establishments would have a problem hiring these people. What you don’t seem to understand is that people don’t generally wake up each morning with the intent and desire to harm others. If the restaurant were harming or poisoning people then it is probably embedded in their process somewhere. Each establishment has a different process which they dictate and control (not the employees).
The fallacy in your argument is that you assume that all the people programs hire are evil by nature.
