I Am So Upset-Mom

I hate the prison system!!!  A yoga place donated 9 mats that we were going to take up to the prison tomorrow.  I emailed the assistant warden and she said that yoga mats are no longer allowed on the compound and they have removed all of them because they can be used for escape paraphernalia.  Are you kidding me?  When was the last time anyone even escaped from Lowell.  A million years ago-one lady had a helicopter come pick her up.  The one thing that causes calmness and centeredness and they are taking it away.  The new admin took the movies away unless they were religious movies.  Are they going to replace any of this to help the inmates-of course not.  My daughter does yoga every day and was looking forward to doing a yoga class plus they have pilates classes and I guess they took the exercise bands also.  They are focused on the wrong things.  So upsetting.  There are many prisons in the country who have yoga classes with yoga mats.  It is insanity.
