Success isn't always an immediate change.

Just for one of our kids to get a job and raise a family well ... those are kids we're proudest of.

Once they get started, they get into it.

If they (staff) don't get good preparation, the kids and the teachers suffer. No one puts as much time, effort and money into it (training) as we do.

Unfortunately, there does seem to be a need for younger kids' treatment. Nobody does anything until there's a problem.
