Or why they don't list these people's last names? That's really odd, don't you think? I've seen school faculty members listed by last name only plenty of times. But I don't think I've ever seen them listed by first name only.

Janis, Jimi, Jerry, Timothy... Do you HAVE to get this close to the edge to get a really good view?

Antigen,

That was one of the first biggest problems I had with Dundee.  I wanted first and last names of all of those who had contact with my boys.  I myself was going to have criminal background checks done on those who "cared" for my kids.

RED FLAG...RED FLAG...RED FLAG

This is a copy of my request for information:

Ms. Knight,
   Could you please send me information on all of the employees who
work with my children.  The type of information I am seeking are as
follows:
   - Years experience with teens in trouble.
   - Level of education.
   - Specific qualifications.
I would like the information on any and all employees who have contact
with my children. I need as much information as you can provide me with
so that I can try and become comfortable with the situation.

Thank you.

Carey,

I am sorry that it's taken me so long to get back to you.  I was at a
Director's meeting in the States and just returned this morning.  I
completely understand your concerns and support what ever decision you
make that you feel is in the best interest of your sons.  Please let me
know if you have any questions, or if there is anything I can help you
do to get this situation resolved.

Best regards,
Amberly

RE:    Geoff & Garred Bock

This letter is to inform you that I do not want my boys in your school.
Their father and I have joint custody and therefore we are to be in
agreement that this is the best thing for them.  I don't think it is.  I
have contacted my attorney and an investigation will be pursuing.  If
they are not going to be living with their dad, then they are going to
be living with me.

Carey Bock


FYI, I was never provided with any information at all.  I was told to go to the Dundee website.  I had already done that.  All that I found there was pictures of people with their first names under them. Nothing more.  People who don't want to disclose information, especially to the parents, have something to hide.

There are no qualifications. No licenses, no certifications, no education. They don't do background checks, (as evidenced by the number of abusers they have hired over the years)

Karen, the Bio page was put up on the Dundee web site after I pulled the boys from the program.  It was a reaction to my action.  And...even then, it has never listed the names of all employees.  It has only listed a handful. Do you recall knowing or seeing the first and last names of all of the Jamaican staff that were there?

Karen, what a ridiculous statment it most certainly does not list everybody!  Your comments are always so stupid.  You are one of the biggest reasons why doubt goes through the minds of so many. You can't remember anything, so why say anything? I am not surprised you signed the contract, I just can't figure out why so many other seemingly intelligent parents did likewise.

well, i don't know the answer to your question, but my son asked a staff member there (a male) and i was told his response was "getting a job here is about as easy as sucking a dick".  gee, Yeah, this is the kind of person people want their kids around.

I was just saying how it was for me - I knew the names of the people there at the time, who worked with my son's unit.
It was a year ago - so I don't recall clearly how I knew them, but I knew them.

I do tend to think the information was on the web site, and you just didn't find the link - or didn't try.  I'm not blaming you for this. If you wanted to pull your kids more power to ya. I got a big kick out of it when all that went down, and would've give a pretty penny to have seen Joe's face when he got a load of you.

I wasn't trying to call you stupid for not seeing the link, if thats what you think. Those things are often easy to overlook; and if you didn't really want to bother b/c you had already made up your mind - Well then, why bother? I was just saying I remeber they did have the info on the site - and I don't think it had squat to do with you.

But your right about the Jamacians - I don't recall anything more than a group photo of some of them - I never really understood who they were or what they were there for, until long after we had left. "Mr. Kenny" is the only one I herd mention of.

I wish you'd try and be less hypersensitive.
It is so tiresome wondering how to say something and not set you off.

I have saved all of the pages from the web site.  I have saved them through the stages as they have changed.  The Bio was not there until after my trip to Dundee.  Like I said it was added after the fact.

I will quit being hypersensitive when those of you who make comments quit making them about things you know nothing about.  Quit trying to explain to me what I know for a fact and you can only assume. I have documented everything about Dundee from the very beginnning of my knowing they existed.  I know when the Bio's were added as I was doing everyting necessary to PROVE that Dundee was not what they were claiming to be.

That is a funny question you are asking. What situation is it that you think I am in?  

I don't think I am perfect.   Why do you think that?
