Oh god I'm really getting so sick of this "poster". Everything they post melts my mind. I almost wish we still had the ability to block certain posters...
attention seeking teens.
One of those girls, Chelsey Dummars, told Robach how those symptoms have changed her life.
“I was doing things,” Dummars said, her words punctuated by tics and grunts. “I was going places a lot before this happened. Now I don’t feel like even going to stores because I feel like people look at me and judge me.”
Dummars said she’s now being home-schooled because she doesn’t want to go out in public with her symptoms.
Like many of the parents of the affected girls, Dummars’s dad is distraught.
“To see her sit there and be broken to tears because she can’t handle it anymore … it rips your heart out,” said Dave Watson.

It's all in their heads.
Thats why its all under wraps. they are protecting the students, they don't want them to look crazy.
"
"the term "Conversion disorder" originated with Freud. He viewed these apparently neurological symptoms as a result of the conversion of intrapsychic distress into physical symptoms. This distress was thought to cause the brain to unconsciously disable or impair a bodily function as a side effect of the original repression, which served to relieve the patient's anxiety
"Others of the patient's symptoms were not of a hysterical nature at all. This is true, for example, of the neck cramps, which I consider a modified version of migraine and which as such are not to be classified as a neurosis but as an organic disorder. Hysterical symptoms, however, regularly become attached to these." Freud believed that all hysterical symptoms ultimately have some organic components.[8]

So no, no one should just walk onto school property and do an environmental survey.

How can anyone deny access to "tax funded" public facilities??
On the one hand, I can understand how fearful the school district must be now that the parents have lawyered up, especially that crazy Brokovich chick. She could get those families stupid amounts of money.
Then again, the people have a right to know what the hell is going on.
God this place makes me sick sometimes.

So your ok with hordes of strangers just being able to walk onto school grounds?

Schools are public property, they are not public accessible.

The only way a lab would make any money, is if they found something....
Profoundly ignorant statement right there. Unless they are government labs, they are for profit organization. I know, I have worked for them.
they make a lot of money. And you get paid for tests whether they come up positive or not. lol

Exactly. This is the entire problem with the US....I would be like me loaning you money to build a structure, but then you wouldn't let me in to see it...The US civilian taxpayer is still king in this country, not the govt stooges,
let's keep that straight....
PS, I believe all US govt employees should be held to random drug tests too.edit on 30-1-2012 by COconspiracyguy because: (no reason given)
