[QUOTE="Star*, post: 296781, member: 4964"] I wanted to clarify - before I sound like someone who was running to Department of Juvenile Justice every day - visitation for us was on Wednesday nights from 6-8 PM. We were searched three times - and couldn't bring anything in with us. WE had to come through the guard shack - traded our keys for a piece of paper. Signed in and left our drivers license there also - THAT unnerved me. Everyone could see who I was - where I lived. Then we had to stand with our feet on 2 cut outs on the ground...arms out, palms up...and two officers stood there - wands at the ready - (lol Harry Potter thing) and would wand you and one would pat you down. Then you went through that door and into another door....and another wand thing and got patted down again....fun. Then you sat in a cafeteria - and they would march the kids in in handcuffs and they would back up to the doors and get the handcuffs removed....orange jumpsuits.....flip flops.....it was a lot to have to take in. If you were wanting the entire 2 hours - you got there at 5:30 sharp, were first in line - and got patted down etc first. We were not allowed to touch - or hug - but sometimes the guards would okay it - I mean heck - we were searched HOW many times? So every chance I got to hug I did. When he was in County Jail - totally different story - and less friendly atmosphere, but less fence, pat downs.....etc. You went in - you left everything in a locker - signed in and that was it. No one had a problem with hugging or anything else. I have no idea what you have to deal with Tracey - but just know you aren't alone in dealing with it - and many good thoughts are going out to you. Hugs [/QUOTE]
