She has a sick child/mother relationship thing going on with Kevin over at anti wwasp.
Look, Im going to tell you all this, not because I'm defending her but because I know from personal experience that Pam is a real parent and she is also devoting a lot of time, energy and money to the fight against institutionalized child abuse. She has even made a decent donation to Fornits in order to keep the hosting paid for this next year so while your bashing on her maybe you can thank her for the fact that she is paying for you to be able to bash her. lol
I will have you know, that I have not always been a Pam fan, for exactly the reason stated by our guest above. But I have come to realize that she has her reasons for still supporting antiwwasp and those are the same reasons she supports Fornits, even though most of you give her hell.
I honestly think there is a point where our judgments should be put aside, when someone is putting in an appreciated effort to warn parents AGAINST doing what she did, I think she is deserving of our cooperation. You dont have to like her in order to appreciate what she is doing, and you dont have to forgive every program parent to give this one that appreciation. I appreciate her, I don't necessarily like her, but I appreciate what she is doing for this cause.
Sorry program parents, but you lost your credibility a long time ago. The day you chose to send your kid to a program.
We can all speculate on what drove a parent to make that arrogant, ignorant and selfish decision, I believe you all know how I feel about
that. But I think when a parent comes across some information, and pulls their kid that is EXACTLY what we have been working to achieve and it is hypocritical for us to shun someone who did the right thing. Regardless of her generally misguided motives before she did end up doing the right thing, and thank god it was only 2 months. My mom left me to rot for 2 years, and believe me she discounted any information she came across, so my hat comes off to Pam for having the guts to admit she was wrong and go rescue her kid.
What you guys dont know is that being a mother to an violent child is way more than most can handle, and even despite that she still brought her son home. I know plenty of mothers who would keep their kids in a program simply because they were AFRAID to bring their child home. At least Pam was brave enough to do the right thing, even though that meant that she would have no escape from the multitude of problems that her son was soon to bring back into her home. That is MUCH more than any "program parent" would do... We all know they wouldn't even dream of doing what she did in her situation. So my view is that she IS different from the rest, maybe not in the beginning but she is making up for it and I think we should let her do that in peace.
