Deltajas,
These parents are in profoundly deep denial. I guarantee that if maggie were to go to them and suggest that their precious darling might need treatment, they'll be screaming, "We'll sue you for suggesting such a thing!" I would stake my life on it. If they'd gotten her into treatment, she wouldn't have done the more recent things that she did.
This is exactly why in hundreds of school districts around the country, teachers aren't even allowed to hint to a parent that his/her child might benefit from Ritalin, much less anything more serious.
I want you to note that the women who are saying that they would go for the no-rec have been alums for some time. We aren't catty students who love to cut. We've been around for awhile and seen the havoc that one person can wreak on a chapter and its members and I think that none of us would be willing to sacrifice our chapters' reps so that a girl with a bad rep can have a second chance. Or in this case, twentieth chance.
