Welcome

I'm glad you have arrived to the Halloween Site of DearestMom and PrisonersToFriends! I'd like to take a moment and tell you about our group if I may! You see I started the above support groups to help citizens in need. Now you may wonder what PrisonersTofriends is all about. I'll answer that for you.. PrisonersToFriends is a support group for those who have a loved ones and friends in the prison system and need support! Then there are the inmates that are trying to reform themselves and need to get in touch with civilization other than the inmates that are housed with them. If you have never been in the position of being in prison or being a loved one or a friend to someone in prison you simply would not understand where I am coming from with this message but if you would like to read on and try to understand then your more than welcome to continue reading on what I'd like to say! In prison there are certain inmates that want to change! Lets face it.. there is! Just because they chose to be in prison for one reason or another.. it's their choose. Some do go in prison because they can simply not live in our society because they either don't have the education or may feel like they are a failer and in saying...they commit crimes to please their peers or someone else. Then there is the ones who feel they have no support to their phycological problems and turn to drugs. They are the vunerable ones that could not find their way so they turned to drugs simply because it was introduced to them to ease their frustrations. As simple as we may feel that their frustration could have been solved they are weaker then us. Then their are the ones that commit burglery, BNE'S etc. What are they looking for. Well.. half of them are coleptomaniac and never helped! The other half is for self esteem that they could never channel to a more positive choice. Then there is the girlfriend or the boyfirend that just won't give up wanting more of the material things. A lot of BNE'S etc. is stemed by that or peer pressure. A place in society: Oh.. look what I got! And then they have friends because the friend wants a free-bee but won't do the crime themselves so they stay friends with the person who will. That person that is just trying to be a friend does not know that they are being used to commit the crime. They are too wrapped up on being the cool dude. If you have read this far.. I guess I've got your curiosity.. Good! There are all types of criminals out there but their crime stems from something that went wrong in their life. If they got to the that point of relizing why they have commit the crime they would not be in prison nor would they commit the crime.. they would change. Sure you feel that they are being treated good in prison. Hell no! I was a guard.. I know! There are the good guards but they don't have a job for long. Too nice. Too understanding. Come to that point.. fired! These guards do their job well. They guard as the are suppose too and they end up.. out... just because they are not cold and stern. Yes.. there are criminals that you have to be stern with.. but all in all the inmates know where you are coming from. For example: A guard would be able to do your count quicker and better if you got along and were sival with inmates. At least the inmates would stand still when you did the count! If a guard is not civil and ignorant the inmate(s).. believe me.. you won't get your count unless you ask another guard for some help! One on one end of the range and another on the other end. Then you meet in the middle to compare counts. You see.. society sees it this way.. You did the crime now do the time and the hell with you! Most of society has done one this or another in their life.. even if it is the tiniest thing! They never got caught! Well they inmates have. Some want to be caught because of the way society is! You know something.. there is the odd story that are published in the paper, magazine etc. about an inmate turned priest or an inmate was taken in by his lawyer and he now works with the law firm. Gee... I wish that happened to my son because he is interested in law! These stories are not published to often. There is a reason for that. The public likes to read the good stuff. Catch the crimal.. put him in the clink. And then a citizen(s) go home and watch the Sopriano's and enjoy the show.. So.. you tell me! What's wrong here? No wonder their are people in jail.. totally confused. Then their was Timothy McFee.. he knwe wha was going to happen in the computer worl. Took himself away from civalization and went simply crazy thinking about what technology was going to do to the world. No one would listen to him so he bolmed innocent peole just to get to the government! What's wrong with this picture. He was a very smart man. He was killed by the government and he could have tlod the government waht he seen was going to happen to wprld bu the is gome now. To make a point.. the internet chat is soon going to be regustered with every user that is going to use it. Why.. our poor childrn are talking to people they don't know who they are! An open book to..! Everything has come out from the closet. Everyone has an opion but really no body stops long enough to stop all this mess. People have problems and need to be heard but everyone is too much in a rush. Pick a number is all they say! Rapists need help but are they heard. There is medication for them. People that are alchohlics can be given medication too.. but do they know that. Most of the prisons have turned out to be sanitariams but with no help for the inmate that needs it. You may think an inmate that needs methadone should not have it.. well your wrong. They do need it just the same as the one who needs insyline for diabetes! Same thing or they go back to the drug. The inmates that have a real head problem have to be locked uo for our safety yes and they should be because they are not themselves. People like Mansfield. He reminds me like someone with rabies. There are those types. The other half that did not commit a crime as he..still get life or no chance of parole. Wht? Why does society want to put then away like that? There is no proper justic or even care to sourt this mess out! Get the key and locked them all up is what I get from society but in the mean type people will always try to get something for a buck or for nothing. Tell me it's not true! He bussy I got this CD player I got cheap and zammm..you get it because you don't have enough to buy a new one for your teenage daughter. SO.. THIS IS WHY I STARTED THE SUPPORT GROUPS. The other side of the world don;t know how it feels to have a loved one or friend in prison nor do the relize what a mother goes through. Some people wonder why a mother stands by her grown child. All I can say is... Wait till it happens to you!
