#GirlsOnTheEdge
why are we keeping young girls who harm themselves in secure units behind high fences? I agree they need a high level of care but secure?

All they’ve done is institutionalise those girls. Now they’re going to stick them in an adult facility. Absolutely disgusting

Good thing was the girl that went to adult service was there for six weeks and then discharged. My point is that at a young age we need to invest to prevent institutionalisation.

Because it’s a big business for private mental health providers. All paid by the NHS
