(135,425 posts)"special needs" children of the very rich and sometimes famous--if these people knew how shittily the administration of the school treated their employees, and how crappy their employee vetting system is since they've gotten "new" leadership (by new, I mean "new" in the past decade or so), those parents would pull their kids out of there in a Noo Yawk minute.
The LIFE Program, from what I understand from my acquaintances who are former victim-employees, is an extension of the private school where parents pay tens of thousands every year for their adult-but-not-ready-for-the-real-world children to be "coached" by these servant/slaves on things like cooking, cleaning, bill paying, interacting with the "real world," "taking responsibility," and "behaving maturely"--things of that nature. Basically, they're paying slave wages to people who are RAISING the emotionally/mentally challenged kids of the wealthy.
I don't think this girl is a bad person--you can't be if you work at that place, you have to be kind of open and enthusiastic to counsel those folks.
