What are WWASPS "Discovery" and "Focus" seminars like?
Anonymous:
Old Friend Just Looked us up recently to get us to go to a Landmark Forum Seminar with him.
That used to be est. Damn, isn't anyone sane anymore? We are humans, not parasites. So why do so many people insist on attaching themselves to the brains of others? I don't get it.

Landmark is what they're calling est these days, eh? My mom dragged me to est when I was 12. By the time I was 13 I was in my first work/therapy camp, and by 15 spent another 18 months in Straight, Inc.
Can anyone give specifics on TASKS?
Is "TASKS" the same as the parent seminars?

TASKS = Teen Accountability, Self-Esteem, and Keys to Success.
The old seminar sequence was: Discovery, Focus, Accountability, Keys, and one-two others that I can't remember right now.
The new sequence begins with an Orientation seminar, then Discovery, then Focus, then Keys.
The parents' seminars follow the same sequence, but they are watered-down version of the childrens' seminars, which are far more brutal.

TASKS seminars come in two flavors: parent/family and child(prisoner). The parent ones are watered down because the participants have the option (i.e. realistic choice) of walking out. It is just the overall name for the series of seminars. They don't use the term any more, perhaps because the T (Teen) doesn't really apply to the parents, but I am not aware of any name that replaces it. As for specifics, see the references above.

You're shittin' me! Was there a direct connection between the EST people and Straight? Or was it just that your mom went in for every newage trend that came along?
I think animal testing is a terrible idea; they get all nervous and give the wrong answers.
