So struggling teens often claims that it only promotes the "good programmes" and agrees that parents and Ed cons should do their research carefully and consult with the experts.
it is interesting then that in 1998 when Tranquility bay first opened Struggling Teens gave it this positive review

They praise programs even AFTER they get shut down. Just google their damn near memorials (http://http://www.strugglingteens.com/news/cedu-support-index.html) to CEDU / Brown schools after they got annihilated. I cannot recollect a negative review of any program school on that site ever.
The site is owned by Lon friggin Woodbury

Inclusion on Strugglingteens.com does not imply any endorsement by Woodbury Reports

ST is a business. It's a business that will lie to parents to make more money. They are one of many in the EDCON business. Many parents go into business for themselves as well. It's a shame they present themselves as a resource for information, too many people take them seriously.

Many do take them seriously and their site is heavily viewed. Don't they charge a monthly fee for ads on their website?
