Jim, I am so sorry, my heart breaks...
but this makes me crazy... How many years have we been telling them that we need to help these young men and women and even some not so young.
It's frustrating, maddening and criminal.
I've Been
Doing it for over 37yrs. as have others, for much longer, most of them are passed on, and some for less, now we have a whole new generation that once again the problems are there to see, and sadly few that don't experience are once again not paying attention nor care to!
