THE-ASHLEYDAWNTURNER said...Hi everyone- as THE ashley that you all are talking about I just have to say when I stumbled across this overview of the episode i was DYING laughing because the admin has what happen down pat. Obviously there a lot more arguments and bad behavior that they didn't show but I truly enjoyed reading this. I appreciate the kind words as I have struggled with leaving the kids ever since it happened. I even read it to my roommates who were equally as entertained. I would ask that everyone continue to pray for the family as we can see they need it.-Ashley Dawn Turner
