You're a very good friend, trying to get this information out. What concerns me is that you have spent so much time on this cause that it's at the expense of living your life. You've been trying to get this information out for several years now. You can continue to write on websites like mine and others, you can continue to scream louder and louder that this home abused children and that your friend should be listened to and believed, you can continue on the path that you've been on, but to what end. I'm not telling you to stop. I'm not suggesting that you give up on the cause. What I'm saying is that when something isn't working, it's time to go in with a different plan. It's time to see things from a different perspective. You aren't helping your friend by going crazy about the lack of attention and coverage. You can help your friend realize that he is stronger than he realizes because he survived the worst of it. That he is worthy of dignity and respect and love. That as long as he is tied to that despicable home and all that it represents, he is still controlled by them. Together, you can look for ways to change the system. Work with others who are already working toward that end. Nothing will change what happened to your dear friend, Scott. But the two of you together can change things for other children by looking for ways to make ALL homes accountable & all officials responsible to ensure these homes are not abusing children. You can let this fight take you down, Scott, or you decide on a different path, one that has the potential to bring about real change. You have that in you, and from the sounds of things, so does your friend. I send you both love, light and healing energy. Thank you for sharing your friend's story with my visitors and me.
