Apologia - Serious debate only, please!

***More definitive discussion/debate on this component of these programs would be highly productive. Another area of interest is the use of inhouse referrals to boost enrollment.***

Bottom line is the wwasps affilated parents are sharing an option, no more, no less. And, getting a much needed break on tution costs. Win/Win.
I need to add: If the referral results in an admission, they get the break tuition cost...

"This topic, started by Ginger as an effort to really discuss something, is very active. It would appear to have, maybe, 6 or 8 regular posters, with an interesting mix of "regular-but-not-on-this-topic" people...meaning several other forum folks read here regularly. Hmmm...we have a larger audience than we think.
I am impressed with the caliber of opinions, grammar, etc., but if you look closely, you will probably find that we are faced with just 2 WWASPS supporters. One woman has a nephew who emerged from Cross Creek a while ago a significantly-changed individual. OK. She also seems to be the same person who refers to the 100's of satisfied customers (or 1000's, depending on how ludicrous she feels) she personally knows. Nevermind that she never refers to these 100's [or 1000's] of folks by name, personal knowledge, anecdotal experiences, etc., except to point to The Source magazine for her, uhmmm, source. One wonders why such a distant relative spends hours reading this forum and adamantly attacking every post with rebuttal, especially since her rebuttals center mostly on "they don't do what you [and literally 100's of other kids] say".
Our second Anon who seems hell-bent of rebutting each post is identifiable by her syntax, which mostly is LARGE-SIZE FONT, a horrible breach of Internet etiquette that she has recently discovered how to do. Is this the same Anon who bitterly demands, "Please do not avoid the question" or "Please answer the question". Saying please isn't going to gloss over the nasty demands from some etheral harpy out there, and does she really expect we intelligent and informed posters to "fess up" and bow to her demands to answer her hostile questions? Like...does she really have and "questions" that are not attacks. Lady, didn't you take seriously your Debate class when you were in Harvard? Your style is right up there on the list of ineffective arguing. Oh, well, maybe you have to have at least 3 check-offs from the List of Stupid Debating Techniques to really fit into the category of Stupid Debater.
FWIW, I just fell into the category of Stupid Debater by responding to these Anons. Oh well, too much coffee this morning. I must go out to the barn to scoop poop, as that has some real purpose as opposed to shoveling around crap on this board."

The problem some people seem to have is an ability to get as good as they give. Hence the surge in personal attacks and/or sarcasm hurled back and forth until somebody cries uncle (or diverts attention away from the topic of discussion). BTW: Does anybody even know what the topic is or rather, was?
:silly:

I don't know, this whole concept makes me squeemish. Some of these parents have websites that are actively recruiting "options" as you call them. This seems more than just a way to get a much-needed break on the tuition costs of a single child. I mean, 10 referrals in one month would pretty much pay for the child's entire program and then some, would it not?
