Its just not socially acceptable, and won't get me any points on here to just say that I think we should take every kid who is every abused in the village out, put them in a protected environment like a boarding school and see what happens. Most of the strong AN leaders I have known were the products of Mt. Edgecumbe, St. Mary's or Chewalah. While they may complain about the damage it did to them, they returned intact, productive and employable. And it saved them years of rape, incest, secondary trauma and beatings. That in itself should be enough proof that abused children may do better in the long run if they are taken out of the  abuse at an early age. Point: Do those people in charge of these children realize that the abuse and neglect has long lasting effects? Its the adults who complain, not the children.
