Yes they were disturbing images but did anyone really think the guards did that for fun?

Yes Dylan Voller has a bad history and we've all seen the footage of him in the chair when he was 16/17 years old.
Let's look at footage of Voller when he was 13 years old. https://youtube.com/watch?v=Lih50T0p2cI&oref=https%3A%2F%2Faccounts.google.com%2FCheckCookie%3Fhl%3Den%26checkedDomains%3Dyoutube%26checkConnection%3Dyoutube%253A526%253A1%26pstMsg%3D1%26chtml%3DLoginDoneHtml%26service%3Dyoutube%26continue%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fm.youtube.com%252Fsignin%253Fnoapp%253D1%2526action_handle_signin%253Dtrue%2526hl%253Den%2526feature%253Dmobile%2526app%253Dm%2526next%253D%25252Fverify_age%25253Famp%25253D%252526client%25253Dmv-google%252526debug_prerolls%25253Dfalse%252526layout%25253Dmobile%252526next%25253D%2525252Fwatch%2525253Fv%2525253DLih50T0p2cI%252526tsp%25253D1%252526utcoffset%25253D480%26gidl%3DEgIIAA&has_verified=1&client=mv-google&layout=mobile How terrifying must that be for a little boy. Dylan Voller is a criminal and a very troubled individual but his treatment at the hands of corrections whilst he was a child is inexcusable. https://youtube.com/watch?v=KUr-JGm-XUM No child deserves to be treated by grown men the way he was. |

I dont find the fact that he was 13 or 14 years old deserving of any absolution for his behaviour. Hes a right little sociopathic piece of sh!te no matter what his age.

So you don't see anything wrong with a young child being treated the way he was? It's fine to treat a kid like that if they are criminals?

So, children should be just considered "Responsible" for their actions and locked up with adults, Rhino? In reality, children are treated as children 'cause they are well, children. Children are meant to be protected and helped, not injudiciously restrained in a chair and hood simply because the adults can't cope with the kid's behavior. Raven is suggesting that because of how the adults have acted towards this kid, the kid's behaviour has become worse. His behaviour is a consequence of the adult's actions. Tsk, tsk. ::) |

While I do not agree with treating a child with violence.
One must ask the question, what drove the guards to this behaviour? Some children, many children, are almost suicidal in their approach to authority or behaving in a civil manner. You can only warn, cajole, beg or suggest that they behave like a human so many times before it all seems rather pointless. Punishment becomes a challenge for people like this, but children become immune to piunishment once they get past a certian point. You show them compassion and love, they think you are weak and try to use you, but the behaviour does not change. What would you suggest? Perhaps chemical constraints? Eventually they become immune or so brain dead that it destroys what humanity is left. It is obvious that this child, and probably many others, are this way because of their parents. Parents go a long way toward how a child behaves in this world, but that is not the total reason, often peer pressure, organizations, groups etc influence a child and their behaviour. What is the answer? I doubt anyone really knows, but violence will only lead to more violence. Restraint, nothing more than bottling up the problem. Chemical constraints, long term, useless, short term, harmful. Its sad, but unfortunately, this child has had it bad and continues to behave bad. Remember, you are what you make yourself, others can only influence your behaviour if you let them. I know people who had some of the most horrendus upbringing, and yet are now successrful and wonderful people. I have also met people who have had a wonderful upbringing and yet are horrible people. |

when you are a teenager, you have a choice to make. you can work hard, study hard, bust thru barriers, use obstacles as stepping stones , eat well, hit the gym and surround yourself with positive people. but all these things require EFFORT. if you are LAZY, you can let yourself off the hook by becoming a victim, feeling all sad and butt hurt, always expecting things to go your way and complaining. this state requires NO EFFORT. in previous societies if you didnt put in an effort you were screwed, you perished. but leftards thru some warped ideology, have enabled people to dwell in this mediocre purgatory. Laziness will lead to craziness. Never , ever ever accept a handout, expect a handout or complain . EVER. i said to my 3 kids. how much money would i have to give you for one of your legs. they wouldnt even sell me a leg for $2 million dollars. i then pointed out to them that they were already millionaires. its important to live in abundance and abundance is a mindset. if you live in australia in 2017 and it isnt going well for you, you SUCK |

it is a paradoxical situation. we need to have strong personal boundaries, so we do not accept these behaviours. for example if a horse bit me, this is unacceptable and must be corrected. BUT we need to be emotionally mastered or we will make the problem worse. for example if a horse bit me and i got really mad and struck it with a whip, it has learnt nothing. what to do. from a position of being a superior being and having mastered your emotions, you correct a behaviour by making "the right thing easy and the wrong thing hard" and you do it without a shred of anger or revenge. so i would get a horse that bit and immediately put it to work, i would halter it to the bcak of a quad bike and make it trot around for 30 minutes . the penny will drop and the behaviour is extinguished . if you whip it, it may well escalate to a kick next time as it now sees you as an enemy i will gaurantee it will not bite again. for these young inmates , i would act in a similar way. i would (unemotionally) attach them to the back of a quad bike and make them jog in the hot sun for , say, an hour. if they repeat the behaviour, the lesson is retaught. it will not take long for the penny to drop. if i dont want to do this unpleasant work, i must act in accoradance with my superiors. now we can all be friends and synergise and become teammates. (just like a horse that is taught obedience can become a great partner). i call this constructing a win/win. violence and anger construct a lose/lose |

So you don't see anything wrong with the victims of this little shytes behaviour? Always making excuses & playing the victim card. The officers in that facility don't deserve to be spat on or attacked by any inmates .... even juveniles. Every workplace has a duty of care to it's employees & just as much so as a duty of care toward & procedures for dealing with violent inmates. They are not in there because they are misunderstood little angels. In the main they are violent, anti-social & uncontrollable. That's what gets them locked up in the first place.

Current guard 'never spat on or attacked'
The royal commission also for the first time heard from a current youth detention guard who said staff were overworked, undertrained and poorly equipped to deal with the complex issues youth detention presented. Youth Justice Officer Ian Johns began working at Don Dale in 2005. He said he had a good rapport with many of the young detainees because he took the time to get to know them, and as a result he was never spat on or attacked. In a statement to the commission he said he believed "a majority of the workers I have known are very passionate and care about the welfare of the kids" in detention. However he said there was a shift in culture at Don Dale in 2014 when "the Northern Territory Government started hiring 'muscle'". Mr Johns highlighted the lack of training of staff as one of the most important issues facing youth detention in the Northern Territory. However he noted training for Youth Justice Officers had improved since 2015. He also said he saw Don Dale used as a "child minding centre" by the courts and the NT Department of Children and Families. "It seems to me that the legal profession and department seems to disagree who pays for the repatriation, which can result in kids staying longer in Don Dale," his statement read. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-03-28/calls-for-change-at-don-dale-were-ignored-... http://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1490852171/2 |

A portrait was painted of a child with serious behavioural difficulties Several years later, after Mr Voller was suspended for punching another student in the head the day after he returned from a three-day suspension for assaulting three other students in the playground, his school in Alice Springs decided it could no longer keep teaching him because of safety concerns for other students and staff. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-04-20/dylan-voller-a-very-difficult-student-nt-royal-commission-hears/8456834 |

I'll go with what the guard said, if it's all the same to you, Gordy. He had worked at Don Dale since 2005. It is most likely he crossed paths with Dylan Voller, wouldn't you think? He said he was never spat on or abused because he took the time to build a rapport. He also said the culture of the place changed when the Department started hiring "muscle". If you treat people like human beings, chances are they'll act like them. if you abuse them and treat them like animals, don't be surprised if they behave like them. As every parent, school teacher, youth detention guard or anyone working with children should know. |

Yes mostly in their family. As for them turning out decent adults .... as teenagers I'd say they were well on their way to that never ever happening......... and that had nothing to do with the Don Dale officers.... maybe it should be pulled right back to who made the decision to put them in there in the first place. We have several generations of young people who have no respect for other or themselves & especially to those in authority i.e. the Police. No responsibility for actions & believing they are untouchable ... they know their rights. And I can see here the reason why that has happened. |

I didn't disagree with it the slightest. he was incarcerated for a reason. No-one disputes that. Yet that guard who i have several times quoted claims he was never spat on or abused ... presumably he knew Dylan Voller well. He worked there since 2005. Are you arguing that Dylan Voller is utterly nonredeemable because you can cite some very bad behaviour from him? That the guard is lying and Voller really did spit on him and abuse him, despite his efforts to build a rapport with him? |

I can't help but wonder how much the people who demand these juvenile criminals be treated with kid ;) gloves, would feel if they came up against these "children" armed, ready and willing to use violence, but not in detention, but in their home?
A very different state of emotional responses would undoubtedly ensue. So when claiming the "kids" status, keep in mind how kid like you would feel them to be if you had to face them with a gang of their mates seeking to rob you with violence? Not very would be my guess. |

Any compensation that these "children" are claiming should be passed on to the victims of the their criminal behaviour.
Funny to think this whole thing started because people were outraged to see the image of a person being strapped into a restraint chair, with a spithood on. If they had left him to his own devices and he'd hanged himself would the outrage at his treatment be more or less? |

Young males do need discipline , particularly in their teenage years when if they dont have or learn basic respect for others their lives go off the rails just like the kids we are talking about here. The kids pretty much the adult by the age of 12, irredeemable.

I dont lose any sleep feeling sorry for criminals. I reserve my empathy for the victims. Sadly people like Mothra think concern for the victims should be secondary to concern for the perpetrator. Heres my take on it. If that kid Volder copped a proper flogging for his violent acts then he wouldnt do them again. Singapore has one of the lowest crime rates in the world with juvenile crime almost non existent, the threat of the cane and then prison time where the guards really do have total control over you and carry bamboo canes with the ability to freely use them stops most of that before it starts. Rehabilitation is just nonsense for most of these crims.

Umm Rhino...when I read the word STABLE.....I immediately thought of Aquascoot and horses and thought ?????? <-----Horrifying I know lol. But you're otherwise correct IMO. PS. PCYC organizations are awesome in helping youths through crime PREVENTION programs. These youths lack positive role models in their lives. One of my cousins is married to a cop who is involved with PCYC so we hear 1st hand about some of the work being done through that organization. Funding however is $hithouse atm. :( |

One of my SIL has twin boys and no dad. She indulges them with anything they want and sets no goals or boundaries. I get them for 2 weeks over xmas hols and they are little turds when they arrive. After surfing fishing bushwalking every day they are changed kids when I hand them back, but it takes them about a week to turn back into little turds. |

just about anything to do with kids is under funded lisa....look at the mess our schools seem to be in..? boxing was always a good thing for young boys they seem to like the biff....and it involves discipline I am a firm believer that most kids like to know where they stand they dont like being a trouble maker!! its just all they seem to know in some cases........ every child should have a line they do not cross...but it doesnt have to be used like a whip to whip them into line...which seems to be what some adults do.. |

that happened to me with my now grown up granddaughter she isnt my blood g/daughter but we have always been close she was a wild child..typical single mothers child...but when I had her usually for a weekend or longer...she gradually changed.. I never turned her away she lived with me for a few years late teens early 20s...we had lots of ups and downs but I never turned her away.. and even today she goes off I dont see or hear from her for months then she turns up and we carry on.... gordy its what you do .. someone has to care about those boys and how they grow up...I always used to say.. well you may be able to get away with that when you are at home.. but when you here this is how you will behave...they soon catch on.. when they are teens all hell will break lose but please never give up on them..some times it all seems very unrewarding.. but in the end with my g.daughter I was the only stable person through her early years .its hard not to look on the boys as trouble and or hard work...but by golly they need you gordy.. |

I have enough on my plate so a couple of weeks are about all I can do. They'll be in high school next year and I fear for them. If their behaviour deteriorates I'm afraid I won't have them around my daughter as I've caught them being really nasty to her. I wish their mother would take some advice. |

How can a father not take an interest in his own kids, I can't fathom. I've taken 2 weeks off over school hols and have been surfing and doing stuff with my daughter every day.
Today we went for a 5km run and she blew me off the track. Beat me by 4 minutes! I was so proud I nearly cried. |

flow state activities. the source of a happy life. when engaged in a flow state activity , time flies and our worries disappear and we become our true selves. the gospel on this is a book called flow by michealy (surname unpronouncable) Flow (psychology) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Concentrating on a task is one aspect of flow. In positive psychology, flow, also known as the zone, is the mental state of operation in which a person performing an activity is fully immersed in a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, and enjoyment in the process of the activity. In essence, flow is characterized by complete absorption in what one does. Named by Mihály Csíkszentmihályi, the concept has been widely referenced across a variety of fields (and has an especially big recognition in occupational therapy), though the concept has existed for thousands of years under other guises, notably in some Eastern religions.[1] Achieving flow is often colloquially referred to as being in the zone. Flow shares many characteristics with hyperfocus. However, hyperfocus is not always described in a positive light. Some examples include spending "too much" time playing video games or getting side-tracked and pleasurably absorbed by one aspect of an assignment or task to the detriment of the overall assignment. In some cases, hyperfocus can "capture" a person, perhaps causing them to appear unfocused or to start several projects, but complete few. |
