The Rubber Room

If anyone is here reading I would love some help with a "how to" question I have...as in How To Add a Link in Blogger? I am following directions and the links are just dissappearing~ any suggestions?

Well, this morning I was reading about a 20 million dollar lawsuit, where awarded to a young woman by the state of California...this was a case of child abduction, where the state having a lackadaisical attitude toward keeping tabs on a sexual violater on parole, basically caused this woman (abducted as a child of elevin) to be held captive for 18 years, and be forced have two children with the abusive tormenter who kidnapped her and held her captive in his residence all those years.

see article here:

Having read that article I read a few others, now I am feeling completely saddened...I usually avoid "news" articles for this reason.

Then I discovered there is a system for teachers who are awaiting a disiplinary hearing...The "Rubber Room", so I began a search into that term.Here is what I found

Now I am done with this mornings news run...really sad situations.
I think I go back to avoiding the news most of the time...it works for me.
