I have a son that was headed in the wrong path, I actually gave up on my own son crying hopelessly every night, my SON HAD BEEN ATTENDING Les Peters for a few months and thanks to a teacher by the name of Mr. Bates, my son has made a complete 360 turn around, it is like magic, I want to thank Les Peters and Mr. Bates personally for changing my son around.
