[QUOTE="Sunlight, post: 16305, member: 97"] my experience with the legal system for ant (3 short term and one long term Residential Treatment Center (RTC)) and three county jails...is that the system is punitive and totally lacking guidance. punitive makes an angry person more angry. the syttem I have witnessed is meant to break the person not mold them. I most certainly find this to be true that Allan said: The method of withdrawing privileges is essentially negative: I can't communicate with you, and so I'll hurt you if you don't mind me. it didnt help ant. however I am using this theory with one addition: The positive counterpoint is: We all make mistakes, and you can trust me to help you do better in the future. the addition is I will help you as long as you are helping yourself as well.
