join the club on paranoia, post traumatic stress doesn't help any, Has anyone read the book "The Blind Assassin" by Margaret Atwood, and no it's not about a real assassin :roll: It's about a girl who gets put in an older version of PV to cover up the fact a family member molested her. I must read for anyone out of PV, "A Handmaiden's Tale" also by Atwood, is very good too, watch out it will give you flash backs though. When I was in PV one of the girls was in solely for telling her family her grandfather had molested her. Nothing else, no drinking, drugs, depression, bad grades, nothing. SHe of course awoke in the early morning, to a even more porcine collection crew, to be whisked off to the Village never to speak with a lawyer again? How is that legal? It is insane that these underage teens some of whom are thirteen, don't get to talk to anyone outside of these programs, where they can be held for years by maybe abusive parents. It seems like these programs should be regulated somewhat, someone should get to see inside of them? Zen you said the child protection agency can't even? what was that? I tried to report PV, to the ACLU, they said it's private we can only bother the government, I tried to report it to the cops, they did not respond to my very long email, I tried to report PV to the child protection agency, they told me PV was ok now they thought, a big lie, it sounds as bad if not worse almost. How many times did they restrain the kid who was in for PTS because her mom died. It makes no sense that the child protection agency doesn't have free access to these places, some of the girls are foster kids. I believe you though, I never saw any child protection people, they had foster care workers come for the highly organized, far away from where we lived, family therapy. Some of the girls didn't have fit parents or anyone that would come see them. It seems like if an underage teen says I am being abused I need to speak to someone outside of this facility, there should be a way for abuse to be reported and investigated. There have already been nightmarish true stories of abuse and molestation at places like Straight, how on earth are these places so unregulated and unmonitered, Bethel Christian Academy, good God Almighty? THese are not state Juvie halls, although I hear they could use some work to. These are private schools/ behavioral whatever the hell they are, boot camps, modification, troubled teen institutions with work detail, and no running water? These girls are/ we were completely isolated. Why doesn't child protection stop by once in a while for an inspection? What the hell is going on here? You all didn't do anything to my computer because I was bitchy did you? You couldn't have right, sure you can flood emails to PV director but you can't completely crash a computer. It's totally dead, no signs of life, and I'm not just being paranoid the exact same thing happened last time I tried to post stuff about PV on another site, and was mailing all that stuff out to cops and TN child protection and such. I think they might have my email, address, name oops. I had to give a name. Talk about paranoia, but it is weird the computer crashed both times, in the same way and only when I post and try to cause trouble for PV. coincidence? It's freaky man. I really am done waisting space, but I wanted to say that bit about the girl who was molested and how isolated the girls are, It makes no sense PV is not monitored at all, that none of these places are monitored at all. I always thought schools, anywhere minors were, had to be pretty well monitered. Then wham I'm in PV and it's just me and PV scary fascist stupid deliverance staff. I like the south sorry. I swear the computer is dead same as last time I tried to do anything about PV.
