Children At The Waterford?

It absolutely saddened me to have learned of this story, and in defence of these children one would have to scream foul, scream bloody hell.

I agree with Jones when she says that the "Waterford Hospital is the wrong environment for young people dealing with mental health issues." Absolutely, what trauma it must be for these children. Would this not be like looking through a window into their future, and without the ability to change it, be watching what would have been told they would become themselves!

Where is child youth services at these times, and yes indeed, Darlene Neville should have been all over this like butter on bread. We have allowed a ground breaking evolution to happen. I can read the policy now. "whereas the province of Newfoundland and Labrador does not operate a child mental treatment facility........"

NO! this is fundamentally wrong, it's morally wrong and Mr. Wiseman had best get his ducks lined up because I can write with peace of mind, this will not go away until I see news breakers telling Newfoundlanders and Labradoreans it's fixed.

Imagine how many parents will shield their potentially ill children from this kind of digression by not seeking help for them, out of fear from our parents, more children will fall through the cracks.
