Cops search for two Tranquility Bay teens

The 18 y/o could go home at least. However, the 16 yo is probably S.O.L.
Hopefully he could get out, find us, and tell the world whats going on FRESH out of that damn place, and shut up all the programmie asshles once and for all.
If quitting drugs means joining the war on terrorism, does this portend the fire bombing of Amsterdamn ?

Well that would be nice - but it not going to happen. There are plenty of kids who came out fresh explaining the realities of life in "the Program". They are poo-pooed away just like every other critic.
Their just half baked, ya know - so they are still lying, manipulators with an agenda.
Even when grads,(who one would assume are Fully Baked) explain these realities, it is discounted by the Legions of Faithful.
They'll say the grad is still stuck in their "victim" mindset - or some other trite and pat excuse to discount them.
There are always going to be Programmed persons you will never get threw to. Same as with any cult.
Nihilanthic:
So they go into Dr.Phil mode :exclaim:) and debunk them? We let them get away with it WAY too much.
I really think someone shoudl make an "unofficial", unendorsed FAQ about how to talk to a programmie so the newbies here know whats up.
I believe that human beings arrive on this Earth wanting to know absolutely everything, and the best thing we can do as parents is to get out of the way -- just be there to let them know what opportunities are there

To any program parents reading, think about this for a moment. You have sacrificed much--much of your own and much on behalf of your very own flesh and blood on the new paraidigm --"trust the program".
You probably accepted a longer stay, more money and more obligations and restrictions than you initially thought would be required. Now your very own child has, according to the Program, demonstrated accomplishment enough to be trusted and allowed to communicate w/ you or, even, to come home with you.
Trust your child! Trust what you know about your baby. If they're not happy, ask. If they lie, ask again. If they give you a good reason--one that meets the test of Occom's Razor--to think something's up, something's up.
Trust me on this, cause you know it's the truth. Your child will be your child long after your newfound Program buddies have forgotten your name and your face.
Life is like a shit sandwich; the more bread you got, the less shit you gotta eat.
