Ed, about concerned parent, what is your problem? You oppose your son having to fill out a medical slip? Don’t you make an appointment to go see a doctor? Your son isn’t at Garden State because he follows the rules, and we’re trying to teach him to follow the rules. The guys at GS are treated with kid gloves, I know because I work there. And why would you believe what he’s telling you?

He is in jail.

Just as an aside, Gov. Christie Whitman privatized medical treatment, so Garden State has nothing to do with your son’s medical treatment. It’s a private organization. So talk to Christie!Final WordOK, so maybe I jumped the gun on the last response.—Ed. Note
