That's right, why a negative almost angry tone about a question about being paid referral fees for helping to send students to Whitmore? Wonder why Alana and her daughter got so upset by a question about it? That is the normal, accepted practice in the teen help industry--not some deep, dark, bad thing that isn't suppose to happen. IF people choose to do that with their time, most people expect to be "paid." Some want cash, and some want a reduction in tuition for their kids. You'd think someone had asked Alana DeGarmo if she had done something illegal, or immoral or something.
