Check it out - someone said that a level one is "watched" for the duration of their status. WRONG! They are on staff buddy for a few days, to get acquainted with the rules. They are not watched taking a piss or a shower - this lasts only for a couple of days.
Who's the "what if" person? Doctor runs are done every day of the weekday. It doesn't matter if they're faking it, they still go if they say they're sick or whatever, at the parent's expense. Has there EVER been a death at a wwasps school for medical negligence? That is really grasping at straws. You ever had your child say they were sick to stay home from school? Did you take him/her to the doctor every time?
Got any more what ifs? :rofl:

Speak for yourself, Anon. I am not anti-family.
I am not a prisoner of YOUR values and beliefs. I am a powerful, intelligent, passionate human being who thinks adults who buy into these seminars as a lifestyle are the same people who can be trained to do just about anything. Like disregard the fact that parents do not own their children, their thoughts or feelings. Stop shoving your values and beliefs down the throats of innocent kids under the guise of bringing families back together. Let them grow up without fear of someone profiting from changing their hearts and minds to fit the VISION of old farts
dressed up like new-age gurus.

WOULD ANYONE MIND GETTING BACK TO A SERIOUS AND RESPECTFUL DISCUSSION?
These attacks and statements based on "guesses" are really deteriorating from what looked to be a great resource in the beginning. By the time I got to page 24 it got "stupid!"
Wwasps programs are a big target, there's also a rather large population of people that can give you the real story, not something from a newspaper article written with ommission or prejudice. There's a small amount of former wwasps that didn't get what they expected. That IS valuable info too. If this thread could be kept to first hand knowledge, then it just might be valuable information to others.
Links and articles are not valuable if they come from thinking they know it all based on what they've read. That crap about the seminars/brainwashing is really funny!
The deterioration is coming from links with the attached judgments of people just to throw everyone off into a kindergarten battle of wits.
I'm amused, laughing as a matter of fact, with a VISION of pre-schoolers on the playground when someone took their toys away. Boohoo!
No, I don't share the views of many here. But I also don't profess to know it all, like others. What I do know I'd be happy to share.
My purpose to share would be for parents looking for help, not just in RTC's, but in dealing with the chaos in their family,prevention resources and RESPECT for where they are. Is there any possibility of respect here and not depend on links to find things to discuss or tear apart?
My purpose is not to berate real life experience.C'mon we can do better than the last pages of this thread!

Anon - lighten up! The majority of folks have a hard enough time tolerating you programmed parents without reaching for the pepto-bismo bottle every time one of you goes off on the miracle of your great awakening. If you are here for serious discussion and/or debate, then go with the flow. If you don't like the links, well hey, don't go there. This is a public forum and all are welcome, as long as they don't bash teens or ex-program parents otherwise, they may find themselves the target of some nasty feedback.

How do you know if kids can take a piss or shower with or without their "buddy" while they are on the lowest of the behavior modification levels? Seems to me you can't know that or anything else that goes on in these places unless you are there 24/7. Nice try, "stretch" but you missed the boat on this one.
