Not long after, he was arrested for armed robbery. That was obviously a terrible decision. He said he felt like he had no options, which I can understand.


bullshite. No one just falls into an armed robbery. Some people just don’t like working and want your money instead. Your friend is a piece of shite who apparently killed his kid. You crying a river over his bullshite study is both sad and pathetic.

Yes, exactly. I’ve had to great pleasure of seeing many successful adoptions through the foster care system. I’ve also seen a handful of heart breakers and the drawn out years of battling the system. Sadly, this likely prevents many parents who are willing and financially able to adopt from even trying. The entire system is broken and needs to be completely trashed. Nothing can be salvaged from that rot.

Yeah. You have no idea. This was during the crack epidemic. Half these kids were from New Orleans. Generally they were crack babies abandoned to their grandmothers who wouldn't kick the mother out. No fathers obviously. But the mother's on at least two kids that I dealt with would sell them for crack. I had one that was about 80% covered in cigarette burns. Nothing is getting a kid that's been through that back. And the people that did it don't suffer anything for what they'd done other than the kid got taken by CPS many times till they simply had to take them on full time. They'd go to foster homes initially till they were diagnosed then they'd end up in hospitals which just made it worse. Eventually nobody would take them. Including group homes that they got kicked out of and hospitals they tried to burn down. I had kids that had killed people including one that killed his mother with arson. Had one that was feral. Brought up by a deaf road whore mother and a deaf biker on an island in the Atchafalaya. Never went to school as a child. He never learned to speak correctly because of that but he did somehow learn to suck dicks and auto asphyxiate while masturbating once he hit Louisiana custody.

I had like sixty of them in five years. It was pure war keeping them out of juvenile prison. We didn't win that one often enough.

Whjat I learned was boys need men to raise them. And those men need to be able to beat their arse effortlessly to the point they knew there was no point in going there because they had zero chance in a physical confrontation with you. Once you got there, you could start doing behavior modification programs. But till then they were just dangerous animals. Extremely dangerous.

So my only question is which age does it become no go back, and what should we do with them?

Were there any success cases?

Of the one's I had, which was sixty something of them, maybe one in ten had possibly normal lives. That's me being optimistic though.

As for when it's too late. It depends on the situation and the kid. Some of them were almost never there in the first place. They'd suffered rapes as babies repeatedly that continued till they were taken by CPS. Then they get into institutions with other sex abused kids that are hitting puberty and they get raped again. Eventually they're so confused about it all they're pimping themselves out for friendship because that seems like the answer to them.

Like I said, it's soul killing stuff. That's why I got out. When I was sitting on a 325 lb Offensive lineman from a top high school in this state trying to turn him over while he's trying to kill me in order to lock the arms and tie the hands together with velcro restrains that I looked in that kids eyes and nothing was looking back. Nothing I could recognize. He was pure rage. Nobody home. He fought me so hard he ended up with a broken arm and half his face peeled off from carpet burn. It was either that, or he was going to win and I would probably have died because my backup was dealing with the other eight keeping them back and not rioting. If I lost that one, we were fricked.
*Edit* I take that back because at that point I was not striking him. Simply locking him up. Had I decided to injure him I could have ended it but that would have sent the other eight off.*
They took over other houses while I was there. Tied up staff and stole the vans. The idea of being tied up by nine psychotics that want to hurt me was not something I was willing to endure but I saw it happen. They would send me and my partner in after those incidents to get the house back under control. Those houses were mostly not psychos. These were crips and bloods in the same houses. It got sporty.
