		<description>Zack obviousl has parents who love him very much.  It&#039;s a shame all these &#039;know it all&#039; bloggers who never raised him, or clothed him, or put food on his plate, or took care of him when he was sick suddenly have all this great advice to save him from himself.  Zack, listen to your parents, listen to you heart and above all things listen to God.  You&#039;re only 16.  You have so much of life ahead of you.  Take care.</description>

You ought to be ashamed of yourself!
What you people are doing to teens is nothing but child abuse. The
Koreans had a similar program back in the 50s, yours differes only
in the physical abuse, not the mental.
Wise up and confine your activities to consenting adults before
society wises up and puts you in prison where you belong!

Eric, thank you for your concern. If you will call me at 901-751-

		<description>Keeping him &lt;i&gt;another&lt;/i&gt; 6 weeks?  My bet is they&#039;re not having much luck with him then and, considering the very high stakes that come with public awareness, they&#039;re stepping things up a bit in the hopes of parading him around like a circus animal if they can completely break him down.</description>

		<description>I came here from myspace having seen a bulletin on the site (of which I am a member). Seemingly he has been kept at LIA for yet another 6 weeks and there is no apparent mainstream American press pick up of this matter. I have sent the story to some of the people I know here in Britain (some of whom are journalists) and will try to get someone to pick up this story this side of the pond. 

I find it preposterous and morally insulting, degrading and horrifying that this aspect of christianity and human reaction is till going on. At least there are those who would keep these stories in the public eye.</description>
