14-Snowplow Parents~The College Admissions Scandal

Send us Fan MailToday we’re taking a different enmeshed crime path. In so many cases on this show, we talk about parents that really should have cared more about their kids. But what about the parents who take their devotion to their children to a criminal level?  The “snowplow parent” is defined as a person who constantly forces obstacles out of their kids' paths. They have their eye on the future success of their child, and anyone or anything that stands in their way has to be removed.  Today we’re talking about a sprawling scheme that includes millions of dollars, an FBI wiretap, and the high-profile arrests of actresses Lori Loughlin and Felicity Huffman among many other wealthy parents and co-conspirators.  This episode will cover ‘Operation Varsity Blues’, also known as the college admissions scandal.  Why spend money on tutors when you can just buy your kid’s way into college?  Hosted and edited by Amanda ScottCo-Hosted, produced, researched, co-written and original graphic design by Pamela ScottOriginal music by Waves EntertainmentDisclaimer by Chuck HaungsENMESHED is an OH NO!
