    It is hard to blame the home for the girls own families’ failures. Cayman lacks any notion of discipline and individual responsibility.

    So basically every week, one of those girls runs away and we are meant to believe that it is just because they are misbehaved?

    Maybe ask the question what are they running away from?

    Cayman wake up, something has to be wrong with the way those homes are run, the young people should not be running away from them.

    And I hate to be the “heard it on the marl road” type but if half of what I have heard about that home is true, I would run away too.
