And my white grandchild and black grandchild and mexican grandchild I hope and pray fair treatment for all the way I love them all the same.And those of you that feel the Youth have no consciquences is wrong just being away from family is very dramatic and punishing to some.Do feel the board should try visiting the facilty's.Do feel staff still follow the code of silence.Do feel it senseless to put all these trouble of the agency on the Youth If noone ever got abused then we would not even be having this dicussion right now.No one should be blamed for the trouble happening but the bad apple's.I have seen some posivtive change in the agency since 2007.But I see it's been a very slow process.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-74165814805083427292010-09-22T16:44:35.258-05:002010-09-22T16:44:35.258-05:00I'm right behind 213: You TYC people better li...I'm right behind 213: You TYC people better listenup and get out while you have something.

It's true there are a lot of bad apples in TYC and there doesnt seem to be very much accountability, nothing will change until they get control of these kids.

The tyc covering up culture of mentally, physically, sexually, verbally abusing the throw away children of Texas for 120+ years and getting better at it every day.<br />Government emps, team playas, hillbillies with a tan trying to be ghetto, verbally abusing children in the name of treatment. I think it was better when a dorm man would not speak to a kid but knock him upside the head. Today’s state government employees and all that goes with that label verbally abusing kids in the name of treatment is causing more harm than good. I’m surprised more youth on staff assaults aren’t reported. I know we state boys back in the day sure as hell wouldn’t have put up with those babbling bafoons tyc calls staff today. <br />Turman now there was a real tyc pioneer. lol<br />Sheldon #47333 II c/sAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-17838581478709096252010-09-04T22:39:30.762-05:002010-09-04T22:39:30.762-05:00How many females did you have sex with while worki...How many females did you have sex with while working with juveniles?

I suspect that some members of the TYC old guard are using a strategy to discredit criticism of the agency and of their past record. <br /><br />It goes like this: when people start posting critical comments about TYC they start throwing poo and making wild and absurd statements about TYC to make it look as if those who are critical are unhinged. This creates the impression that criticism is unjustified. By doing this, they create a smoke screen to hide behind.<br /><br />I also suspect that some who criticize the agency sometimes go over board and thus discredit their points.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-41290454195119041122010-09-02T15:44:45.028-05:002010-09-02T15:44:45.028-05:00Grits is going to regret leaving this comment thre...Grits is going to regret leaving this comment thread open for so long.
