Does anyone other than me not see the irony in the fact S.S. from Pure is suing Carey Bock for having accused her of sending kids to abusive schools. Now it appears that allegation MAY be true.



Won't Carey's wwaspie attorney have a field day with this one.



Won't S.S.'s attorney be so embarrassed.



If I was referring to a school who had been accused of such abuse allegations,I'd stop referring immediately until the allegations have been proven one way or another.It seems like safe common sense to me.



Or are we seeing an EGO bigger than it should be?

That has been my point all along:

That Sue Scheff should not be still referring to Whitmore Academy until the issue is resolved one way or the other.

Cayo Hueso:
I'd like to know how anyone can, in good conscience, continue to refer to a program that is being investigated for abuse AND has had their license taken away.  http://www.isaccorp.org/whitmore/whitmorenews.pdf


Does PURE disclose to potential clients that Whitmore is currently under investigation for abuse?

Does PURE disclose to potential clients that Whitmore's license has been pulled?

How can PURE refer to a "school" that has no teachers?

How can PURE refer to a place that is supposed to provide therapy when there are NO THERAPISTS?

What are the criteria that PURE/Sue Scheff use to "approve" programs or schools?


Our youth can not understand why society chooses to criminalize a behavior with so little visible ill effect or adverse social impact... These young people have jumped the fence and found no cliff.

Honestly, I think they simply refuse to believe it. They're not just saying that all critics are bitter failures who can't deal. They actually believe it.

Sayeth the one: "All are queer but me and thee."
Rejoins the other: "Even thou art a little strange."

I think that was Poor Richard, but I'm not sure.

Cayo Hueso:
That would explain the "how could they in good conscience" part, but I'd still like some answers to these questions.  There's no believing or not believing about these.

Look at PURE's "NEVER/ALWAYS" list...
http://www.helpyourteens.com/helpful_hints.html

specifically...

NEVER accept a program that is not accredited to educate your child,

ALWAYS ask for the staff?s education, training and experience. Credentials of those working with your child are vital. Ask if they have background checks on all employees.


Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind. And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I have done. And I am Caesar.
