Behavior Modification Facility
From Freepedia
A Behavior Modification Facility is a private, residential educational institution to which parents send disobedient children in an attempt to improve their conduct. A number of such facilities are operated in the United States. Others operate in Mexico, Jamaica, Costa Rica, but are run primarily for the children of U.S. parents.
The forerunner of these programs is an organization that calls itself WWASPS, or the World Wide Association of Specialty Programs and Schools.
