Just picking up on your remark on The Southwestern Company. My son participated this summer, and I discovered that my wife and I had been snookered by a very smooth talker. PARENTS OF DAUGHTERS: DO YOU WANT YOUR DAUGHTER KNOCKING ON DOORS AND ASKING STRANGERS, IN MARGINAL NEIGHBORHOODS, IF SHE CAN STAY WITH THEM FOR THE SUMMER WEEKS? THAT IS PRECISELY WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUNG WOMEN IN THE SOUTHWESTERN COMPANY PROGRAM. Southwestern will find a thousand slick ways to talk their way around this central point, but in fact that is what happens once these kids land in the area where they will be working. My son saw it with his own eyes, and he was shocked at the discrepancy between Southwestern's promises (to my wife and me) and the reality on the street. It is incredible to me that no one has thus far gotten hurt. No way in the world would I allow my daughter to participate in such a dangerous program. I'm sure that lots of folks have made lots of money and learned a great deal, but the ethics of this deception are, to me, a complete disqualifier. And I'm sure it's all, as they say, perfectly legal...
