Doc RB, are you looking for the necronomicon ex mortis from Evil Dead, the necronomicon that HP Lovecraft invented, or the necronomicon written by the Abdul Alhazred? :)

spidergirl, are you from this planet???, I myself used to be a cargiver and a CNA in a nursing home and adult family home setting, to make such a statement without really thinking about the whole picture, is scary. I do not think that this field is for you!!! and if you are gonna tell a story at least make some sense!!

Do you think the patients didn't deserve it or are you surprised the hospital was thoughtful enough to provide recreational opportunities? I am not sure which one you mean.

A developmental center is not the same as a psychiatric facility.

Amanda,
Parents didn't "dump" their children in state facilities because they didn't understand what they had. There was a lot of cultural push at the time and no community supports available for parents who had children at home with challenging needs. The parents who placed their children in facilities such as this did it because they believed at the time it was the best thing to do for their child. Most of them felt guilty already, even though they were told it was the "right" thing to do. I have a lot of empathy for these families because of the position they were put in.

A developmental center is not the same thing as a mental health facility, which is a much nicer way of saying "insane asylum."

Awesome photo Mr. Motts! You are fortunate to have visited some great locations. I'd be glad to see a fraction of the places you've photographed in person!
