            Also a lot of the people Brace met at that camp are dead now apparently, either due to an OD or suicide. And him getting sent there lead him to his heroin addiction. Incredibly fucked up. His behavioural problems as a kid were relatively mild, not that worse behaviour justifies it, but this is the extreme length his parents went through just because he wasn’t the ideal child.
