Indian Springs holds such a special place in my heart. It's deeply upsetting to know that while I was experiencing some of the best years of my life, other people were being victimized. I can’t imagine what it must feel like to have to exist as a victim in an environment where no one is apparently concerned about abusive behavior. It must make a person question his or her own reality. It must feel so isolating. For a child to bear that experience is heart-wrenching. I admire those who had the courage to speak up when they were in high school, and I am angry they did not receive the support they deserved. I stand in solidarity with the victims who have kept quiet - however you choose to deal with your experience is right and valid. Abuse masquerades as normal until it's specifically named as pathological. It's just a teacher being quirky and maybe a little too cozy until someone accurately calls it abuse. That should not be a child’s responsibility. I hope the efforts of the good people behind this site result in Springs implementing institutional structures that prevent future abuse, support former victims, and provide channels for reporting future incidents if they occur. Thank you all for speaking up. I’m with you.
