Straight, Inc. and Derivatives / RUN FORREST RUN!!!
« on: October 16, 2007, 08:02:33 PM »
Let's here some of those stories of us running from the LIFE building.

Whether it was knocking the kid over guarding the door and running for your life...what happened, did you get caught? how far did you make it?

I made my attempt after punching some kid who had me belt looped taking me to the nurse's office. I ran out the front door and soon after there must of been a dozen kids/staff members chasing after me. Bolted across the highway, barely missing cars, and kept on running...RUN FORREST RUN!!!

An hour later, I was caught by the police and brought back to group. Damn it!

Months later being the oldcomer...I could tell you stories of the newcomers I had to watch. From people jumping from the windows of the residential building, alarm blasting in the middle night, chasing them down the street in your dam underwear....oh my god! How gay! LOL

Any takers....

Guester, well I think...it was horrible for what WE all went through. I'm sure being on staff was just as difficult. You had to lead these groups..to lead these peers..be aggressive to get to the youth's most inner deepest darkest feelings--emotions. You were trained if the child was resistant to use what ever force was necessary to break them.

At times you gained "our" trust...you were our peers only difference was you were leading us. We opened up to you

I think we all were dished the same abuse, some more than others. It's terrible thinking about those days but this is a good place to vent your feelings, you think?

Let me get my 2 cents in here...Listen to me, I don't care about all the "good" things she has done. She's a human being. I think all humans do good things as well as the "bad". I don't think there is anything positive about the "LIFE" program except for all of us "survivors" out there who made friends going through this F'up rehab. The bottom line is this...Ms. Pete was Executive Director of that Shit hole which puts her in control..in charge. She allowed all the abuse to go on in there. She was breaking the law left and right and with no care in the world. In her mind, this is how it had to be. The result...many damaged lives are out there. Some committed suicide, some in jail, some still wonder to this day why they had to go through that shit.
Asking to have respect for a woman who gave no respect-consideration to children restrained to the floor, restrained on the church pews, locked up in the in-take room for hours-deprived of all of your basic human rights....I don't think she's EARNED THAT RESPECT.

Straight, Inc. and Derivatives / LIFE--Took away 2 years of my "Life"
« on: October 11, 2007, 06:54:55 PM »
Hey, new to the site. I posted in a few other areas...thought I would gab a little here.

I was in around '86-'88 I believe. It took me forever to get past that dam 1st phase. Staff members had a hard time believing me with my drug list.

Some of the people I remember were;
Chris Scruggs
Guy Bayless
Kerbie Williams
Paul Willard--kid was restrained so many times. Practically every fucking day. I'm sorry Paul--we were made to do it.
Holly Mann
Susan Corrigan--dated her after 7th stepping
Tonya ?
Kitty Lopez
Sean Moore---lived on an island (very cool)
George Woods ---lived with his family for about a year
Anthony and Luis (brothers)
Brian and Scott (brothers)
Barron Mays

By the way, I am Hampton Black

I agree with everything I've been reading on this site about the abuse and all. The things that went on in there were terrible. I ran away after a few days of being there was brought back by the police. Forced to stay as I was only 16 yrs old at the time. I finally conformed and started going through the phases realizing there is no other way out.
