They're too precious to leave at the mercy of the sad excuses for humanity they often get saddled with.

Thank you so much for your input. A recent death of a 14 year old boy has me very emotional, not to mention I
was in one of those places 20 years ago. That place was sued and shut down, but re-opened under different names.
I just wish there were better government regulations on the many, many places that are abusive to children, branched out from the Us (not only in the US) but in Mexico, and other places too. Hell, Dr. Phil was plugging them on his show the other day - one that has been alleged abusive, neglectful, and unethical.
Abuse is abuse whether it's to an adult or a child, at home or in the workplace, but for severe abuse to exist in places that are supposed to be therapeutic???
Shameful.
PM me if you want to discuss this further.
jorgelito ~ Thanks, I will.
