OT is Quackery

As an OT, I tend to agree that it's a lot of quackery... but a lot of this has more to do with the individual personalities themselves. I've been to a number of places where it appears that the clinicians are super-lazy and fly by the seat of their pants when their clients arrive. I've been to schools and have seen a lot of people doing nothing but hanging out and gossiping for hours at a time, chatting on the phone and collecting paychecks.
But if you REALLY want to talk about quackery, take a look at the social workers who make a lifestyle out of manipulating, back-stabbing and being control-freaks under the guise of "wanting to help people" with a form of passive-aggression that can make Josef Stalin cry. No other profession can make children hate their own parents for all the wrong reasons like social workers can.

Why do you say it is quackery?? I am looking to become a cota so I'm curious about your statement.
