An open discussion about the troubled parent industry

so now that your a big fish in a small pond, do you remember the bruises on my back? You didnt put em there but you failed to notice,or report it to anybody.Did you notice my depression? I bet not.When you suspended me from school in 9th grade,did it occor to you that my problems went back to southernpines middle school. I had your insipid wife as a teacher in 6th grade,she couldnt teach her way out of a wet rolling paper. Thanks for not stepping in, thanks for being blind.And of course,thanks for failing me.

Anybody out there ever read anything by him? Was he brilliant of a load of shit? Why did the government burn his books?
  Was it because of his dim view of Freud ?( God,would I be in trouble) His leftist polititical leanings? Help a cracker out,here.

Life throws us a little wisdom once in a great while,pity we dont recognize it at the time. Back inthe 80s,I was a poor student going to emt school,and working at a plasma donation center. I lived in the most fucked-up apartment building ever. mostly drug addicts around me,and it was mostly a matter of self preservation to carry a pistol just to go to the grocery,or take out the garbage.   The one bright spot in my world was this old Indian,Len, that lived across the hall. Now Len ,he was retired Marine Corp, and a Korean war vet.He drank a good clip,so did I,and we both fish. He was from one of the 7 fires people.( Souix) damn if I can remember which one.
 He tried to get some things thru my thick Irish head about staying true to what I believed,which at the time I took as " Blah,blah,blah". I remeber he told me once,about HIS fucked up childhood. He was in some indian school in Anadarko,okla.I geuss in the 40s....He went on to compare his being stripped of his clothing,his language,and his culture to something akin to "north korean brainwashing" or at least his understanding of it? At the time I remember being SO taken aback by his pain that I,me with MY big mouth ,was speechless. I mean this ol geezer was as tough a fucker as I ever came across. I watched him beat the living fuck out of some asshole who had tried to rob him,beat this fuck so bad,that when the cops came they wanted to lock HIM up.
The last couple of days I watched a documentary on the Carlile Indian School,in Pa. Holy fuck.Its kinda dawned on me why I saw Len thru the eyes I did. and how half closed they were. I should have asked Len how in the fuck he healed himself,or if he ever REALLY did. I shoulda had the balls to at least try and talk to him about straight.I never did. He woulda got it.
he usta tell me about being whacked around over speaking his own language,then when he refused to speak at all he got beaten for that, and he was just a fucking little boy,like 7 or 8. He said the few time he went "home" it was never home, he didnt even really speak in any revelant way to his own people anymore,felt like he had one foot in the school world and one foot in the real one. He went on to explain at different times about being taught by the school that all things Indian,were bad
including him.  Starts sounding familliar huh?

supposed to have been a "tough love" program in PA. Back in the seventies? Forest County? PA. or so Ive been told.

I am not takin part in the bash AA Dont bash AA shit. It benifits some, others will never go there cause of 12/7 step wingnuts abusing them in a program.
Thats all there is to it. Be fuckin done with it already. ::deadhorse::

Has anybody had this procedure done ? Have 1st hand knowledge of someone who has? Does this shit really work?

is there ? has it ever worked ?

Kinda seems ,sometimes that we were lined up to be victims on the altar of either democaracy or the republican party.It would be interesting to see a factual study done on straight(and decendant) programs to see where more/most of the influence politically,and thusly the cash REALLY comes from.
  Straight is DEAD,and its history is well known,but did one party,or group back its decendants more than the other? Were we all some kinda pawns? I think about this shit all the time,and at times cant let go of it.
 I vote republican , basically be cause I detest restrictions on the 2nd amendment,and I firmly believe in old scool silly shit like the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Funny how straight seemed to 'suspend' that shit when it came to us,  Im sayin' werent talking behind peoples backs,and( as antigen is fond of saying)
RAMPANT TALKING OUT IN GROUP. Wasnt that protected speech? What about the writ of Habeus Corpus? Unlawful fucking detention at least.Where the fuck was MY due process ,Godammit? no, really where did it go? How come nobody was lookin out for my ass? Is my country a joke? Is my belief misplaced? or is it a lack of inforcement?
We bitch and moan about gitmo,and the 'rights' of illeagal immigrants,but where the fuck were mine,and some poor fucker is STILL in some monkeyfarm,with his/her rights bein run over fuckin roughshod.       I dont get it . I dont think lawyers are an answer. I wonder if a firebomb is. :nods:
