That will depend on how your out-look is on these matters. I have been very successful in life ever since that time, and don't want to be disrespeceted because of my stay there because I was a kid who had a habbit of getting into little jams along my childhood days.
Chuck V and Kim, I was there as a patient from the beginning at C51 at about 13. Then was transferred to Yorkwoods center til age 17. Late 70s. Still have nightmares.
This was a quiet room aka solitary confinement.

This was the real thing called the hole I know I was trown in there in I belive it was about 1958 when I got caught after I excaped by breaking one of the window hinges and droping out with a bed sheet to the ground. It was about 13 ft or so, I was a kid so it looked a lot higher to me.
