that whole "peeing pants" thing...I don't think it was actually about having to hold your pee for so long you woul pee ur pants...i think it was more about you were soo scared you almost peed your pants....I was scared on John nights when we became all loud and annoying....I would have peed my pants if he pointed at me and said "you are soo dishonest"..

and about the lawsuit.....It's going to happen....and we are all aware that it's difficult. I wish you were there to support us intead of bragging about your great experince, or even ignoring the whole subject. Don't so much insult...by I feel insulted myself when you express how great the school was....it's not about the "greatness" of the school..it's about right and wrong ..just like in the court room...DO YOU BELIEVE EVERYONE HAD BEEN TREATED EQUALLY, FAIRLY, AND WAS GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO STAND UP FOR THEMSELVES..? there is no "WELL MAYBE",  "WELL I HAD A GOD EXPERINCE", "THEY MADE IT MISERABLE FOR THEMSELVES" OR "WELL WE ALL DESERVED IT". ITS "YES, "NO" YOUR HONOR.

For those of you planning a lawsuit, don't forget to keep an eye on the Montana Statute of Limitations. Hopefully you have already contacted a lawyer and know how much time you have left to file.

Thank you for that. I think it is about 5 years, and if your years limitations has passed you can still help out, please help out. If you remember any events that occured there, and did not believe was right/fair/legal/allowed please post it. Also does anyone have the questions for the sexual/drug,alcohol/criminal/food histories we were assigned to do?

I think this would go under proffesional malpractice, which has a limit of 3 years after date of discovery. I left only a year ago, so if you need me respond. I'm a little wary of putting my name just yet, but if there actually is a lawsuit being filed a may like to help.

For the girl who wrote:

What planet are you from? If you believe what has been written here is fair, then I am truly sorry for you.

What has been written here is not fair, period. Right is right, wrong is wrong.

Fair in my experience is an illusion. right and wrong good or bad are up there  with black and white.  There is a lot of grey here.  I beleive the only way to know what is right and what is wrong or what you want and what you don't want is in you, your heart, your gut, my heart, my gut.  

I can't make anyone take perception of right and wrong.  It should be classified with stealing, when someone sells thier fear because they are afriad, or told to act happy and smile, when they are hurting and in pain, or blame someone else for your life, or lie to themselves and others to please someone else.  

I really know nothing, except what I feel.  and I feel all of you in my heart and my head for the last couple of months in away I haven't for years.  The truth is that I love every single one of you even if I wouldn't go fishing with you I still love you.  The same was present for me when I was there.  

I know it felt like no one cared when I got out like I had been giving up on agian, thrown away.  These are thoughts and feelings that sometimes are my lead in this life.  Focusing on the facts are very important.  Searching for those facts is the most important thing I have been doing here.  We all got out into the real world no where near another and used the telelphone, or saw eachother once in a while.  In my experience this is life, the love is still there.

Star- who are you?  I want to chat with you if possible- [email protected]

kat

Ps I don't understand this fair thing.  How are we defining fair? That we were treated fairly like as in equals.  OR with dignity and respect.  I  think were treated niether equally (kiss asses got more perks, older girls got more attention-in my time) nor with respect ( I don't think I even have to explain that one!)  Just read all posts.[ This Message was edited by: katfish on 2005-05-12 10:12 ]

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.

To quote the great (and yes I mean great) Mike Finn, "Fair only happens in Pomona once a year."
If any one files a law suit against MMS I will be on the front lines on their behalf.
While I don't think that it is or was a perfect place, I am hear writing because of it. I cherish my time there and my life after it. If you hate MMS so much then move on and forget about it. They are not responsible for you misery. You are.
I am probably sounding really harsh, but MMS was as difficult as it was rewarding and I have spent the last 10 years since I left working my ass off to have a successful life. Not success as they define it, but success in feeling happy and saitsfied that I am making the right choices for me. If you've made poor choices and feel guilty or unhappy that is not the school's problem.
Things that I have been descirbed in these pages as abuse I think is way off. I was forced to eat food I hate, and made to perform all manner of physical labor against my will. But that was the whole point. It wasn't about the food or the task, but about relinquishing control and changing. Again to quote Mike, "The best you could do got you there," so if you think that you would have been better off without MMS I think you are probably wrong.
