*I'd like to caution everyone of the mind to confiscate contraband
property.. Knives- Tape players or anything belonging to a boy to
NEVER toy with the return of the property.
*Specificly... NEVER *add duties to humiliate, or embareass a boy
before the others... *When you take something, state clearly then what
you intend to do... *Then DO THAT as an act of your word.
Remember... What we do *may have influence far beyound our time...
Personel property, can be in conflict with the safety or policies of
your group, but in *siezeing the item YOU become responsible for the
care of it and the proper return to the boys guardian... or the boy.
