[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 263360, member: 3419"] I agree with-Witz and others ... it depends upon the kid and the circumstances. Some kids are born with-screwy wiring and nothing will change them. Others can be rehabbed. Very scary and sad all the way around. I love the stories I read about boys on ranches taking care of horses, who all of a sudden realize what it means to take care of another living being. And the horses are so big you can't kick them around like a cat, so they automatically earn respect. I suspect that the counselors who work with-them occasionally spot a kid who just can't learn, and I'm curious as to what they do about it. Or perhaps the kids are screened b4 they even get to the ranch, for exactly that reason. [/QUOTE]
