Love is the Law

Sometimes the POs must do their jobs. I have never really met one with bad intentions. I need for the POs to do their jobs. Otherwise some of the young Masters get lax about their commitments. During the last week B. has been up to his old tricks. He missed 2 days. He and his mother missed an appointment with L. His mother says he has been staying up all night. He is skipping his meds. She is going to start counting them. Oops. Yes. She forgot about the appointment. His PO drops in. B. is not here. It is lunch. Court is getting close. It does not look good for B. They may have to send him away. B. shows up after lunch. I tell him his PO has been by. He wants to know what he said. I say it does not look good. He says he will fix it. He wants to be here. He can do it. I tell him I am not hopeful. I tell him I want more than anything for him to prove me wrong on my lack of faith. He says he will.

N.'s mother was here Monday looking for him. He did not go home over the weekend. I let them talk in the lunchroom. 2 days later N. is not in school. His PO calls. He is locked up. He has stolen money from his mother. He may be locked up till next Tuesday when he has court. They may place him outside of the home.

A PO comes to check on R.-1 and R.-2. on Thursday. R.-2 is doing good. He missed a day this week but he called me at 8:30 in the morning. Wide awake. He lost his bus card. He has no ride. He has no money. I believe him. He gets a ride the next day and gets a new bus card. R.-1 is on his 4th missed day. He does not call. The PO says he will violate him and lock him up for 48 hours. There goes the weekend R.-1. Get your ass to school.
