Sorry you had a rough one. No fun getting that 'where are you' phone call.

Right out of college I worked for a while in an unsecured home for level 3 conduct disordered boys. Weeks on end my job was to wrap up 'little' Tony from whenever his am fuse blew until all the other boys were downstairs. We did corner duty literally daily for months. Best workout I ever had. Li'l **** had BIG weightlifting felons for brothers. Kid was a miniature greek god. Eventually he came to trust the process enough that he only struggled when he thought the older kids were looking, but in the beginning.....
