It is the story of brutality sanctioned in the name of "correcting" children. It's a wonder there are any survivors of such a place, and a miracle that Wayne is the kind, good man he is today.Austanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05568578637922817033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2992744093231855633.post-38867142960364044732012-02-03T18:03:12.922-08:002012-02-03T18:03:12.922-08:00Thank you K Lynn.

Every parent considering any placement facility for their child should read this book first. A sadder footnote is Maines Board of Education was continuously notified of wrondoing and they allowed, if not enabled, Elan to abuse children for years. Waynes book is an honest and forthright account of that soul crushing facility. Thank you Wayne-Lynn Corning ELAN 76-78Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
