ASR Alumni Interview
Antigen:
--- Quote from: "The gatekeeper" --- It isn't that hard to spend time with their child, go to a child's sporting event, be fair / consistent with rules in their home, ensure their child is doing home work, inquire how their child is doing in school etc. These schools are really a baby sitting money venture.

Actually, I think that for some people it's pretty near impossible and for others pretty near automatic.

--- Quote from: "Anne Bonney" ---Hmmmmm, I would imagine that there are other Alum Interviews. Why not post them all instead of cherry picking?
--- End quote ---
Most businesses go through them all and pick the best one or two and present them. The negative ones would never be posted we all know that plus the good ones help with their marketing. Any negative interviews would not help too much.

So, in other words this is blatant advertising taken right from a marketing website? Yup! Shaw `nuff!

What do ya'll think? Should I ax the entire thread or is there any useful, relevant conversation going on further down the page?

I'd say leave it, it can be referenced whenever we need proof of Whooters foolishness.
Whooter:
Geesh, put the torches down, go home and have a beer or a Blunt. A little interview from a survivor that doesnt fit the fornits mold isnt going to hurt anyone. I dont think a post or two will change peoples thinking here enough to lose any followers. Pull some old abuse stories out from the straight archives, hold your hands over your eyes and ears and keep saying to yourselves:
"All Programs are Bad", "All Programs are Bad", "All Programs are Bad", "All Programs are Bad", "All Programs are Bad", "All Programs are Bad", "All Programs are Bad", "All Programs are Bad"

I disagree here. The kids come from all types of parenting types. Some have parents who both work others from families where the mother stayed home. One parent was very strict with their children while another allowed their child to come and go all hours of the day or night. Many of the kids had siblings who were doing fine and moving on with their lives so there is not any common thread which points to a lack of parenting skills or something the parents missed that caused the child to become at-risk.

Who fault is that, Whooter? Common logic dictates parents should be consistent when they uphold the rules but but you know that. The parents acting (in your example) like incompetent turds created a mess. They should man up, not spend $5,000 monthly for strangers to clean up their mess.

Whoops, I agree with you consistency is key, I meant to say one set of parents (one family).
--- Quote ---Common logic dictates parents are %100 responsible for supervising their child. The should employ someone to do it or another family person.
--- End quote ---
Parents are responsible for raising their children. But some households have both parents who work outside the home. I agree that the ideal would be to have one parent home all the time but times have changed. I dont think there is a common thread that points to parenting (or a specific parenting style) as the cause for having an at-risk child.
--- Quote ---We :D can conclude the chances of you understanding/accepting the aforesaid would be comparable to some persons chances of grabbing hold of a lubed up watermelon in a swimming pool.

lol, my use of analogies is becoming contagious. I like that one! Very visual.
