Now... take this safe place, and the first-hand
experience that I've been able to share. This
experience that really happens, and this happens in a
more managed environment (such as turning the air
conditioner on when it's hot outside); and transfer
this 'safe place' to the rest of the country. This
'safe place' is a good jumping off point in
understanding why this country has social problems.

What else is there for the residents that have
committed crimes, or hurt others in their lives and
were removed by caseworkers, or their parents can't
handle them anymore?

Who? Surrender?
[Marsha]

The ones that want to go home. Even some that go
home, it is apparent they haven't changed and they end
up right back into the system.
[Marsha]

good. Why did you bring up 'safety'?
Safety is a good starting point to applying static
patterns with the social problems in this country.
Without safety we will never get to the root of the
problems.
