An open discussion about the troubled parent industry

oh my god, although this is an amazing event for some of us, there are now 500+ unemployed people. whether you liked all of them or not, A.) some of them really kicked ass, and B.) what the hell are all of those people going to do for food? some of them live together and some of them have familys to take care of. stop being so coldhearted towards them.

I am not in even a tiny bit worried about those folks.  After all there were not any worry's about my family when I worked over 40 hours a week for over 3 years.  "Never mind that I had small kids who needed me as much as the teens at the school did." Then when out of the blue they tell me "you don't have a job here" No one said Hey whats up??

If in fact the CEDU had not used people and trashed them and kids then this day may have never come.  

As for the Kick ass Staff. Most of the ones I know of got out and far away long ago.

:scared:

I was not "a kid" I went to work at RMA back in 1987 or about then.  I had to go to work as my hubby could not find enough work or a job that would pay enough wage for us to "make it"  from pay check to the next pay check.

It was the offer of the money that got me in the door and I think it was the need for a good cook that kept me there.  "Until the day that I made the mistake of standing up to someone with more power than I had."  (It was over the veggie diet, I know what you need to combined to have a balance if you are not eatting meat or dairy but they did not want to hear me.  The students who ate that diet knew when I had made the dishes but the staff just did not GET IT!)

I had just came back from a paid vacation when I was called in and told the following.

(From this point on you will not speak with the kids you will do your job and talk no-one anymore.)  Well I'm a big talker, and I in fact felt that alone was a killer, but I did as I was told for about 4 days...  Then I was told "You do not work here anymore.  Leave!!!"  When the young gal who I had just helped get her dress for her graudation made called me at home to ask why I was not there told me I was invited to her "Big DAY" I went.  I remember getting starred down by some of those "powerful folks" I held my head high it is like a dream now looking back.   As time went by students returned to Bonners and in time many found me.  It has been almost 14 years now and my own kids who so needed me for the years that I was gone working over 40 hours a week are grown.  My younger child was only 7 when I was told to leave he seems to remember more of the pain I went through then I do.  

When I worked at RMA there were only wood cook stoves, "I think Blown Away was there in the weeks before I was gone."  In time not only did the wood stoves get replace but the food changed.  

The name RMA will never have students again, but the building you remember if you were at RMA is still a school it is now called North West and Boulder Creek is still where it was.

As for the Law Suit there has not been any news here in Bonners as to how it is going.  I would hold out hope that in time everyone who got ripped off gets their needs meant.  

But most of all I hope that someday everyone who was hurt can heal.  

I Love to read the broard here, you all are great, I do wish that people who do post could take the time to log-in so I can follow better where they are coming from.

Life IS A GIFT....  

We are here in this body at this time and in this world as a gift, we are in a place of high learning, and I hope you all are going to have a very wonderful year.
