Those who do not know history are condemned to repeat it. I wish everyone could see this website because we continue to treat the disabled like this in the sense that many facilities nursing/group homes remain under-staffed, under-regulated and dehumanizing places. Thanks for posting website.

As I watch this, it's like my dad said he's 76 if you were not normal you were put way or put in the basement. How things have goten better, but I'm sure their are places that are real bad. Part 1 and 2 was very sad those poor children, how could this happen! I want to thank you for posting this.
