+) Tomes mentions how Kirkbride permitted the patients to purchase anything that they wished to have in their rooms (202). Wouldn’t this be possibly dangerous to the patients if it was not closely monitored what was sent to them or what they purchased? Couldn’t this also adversely affect other patients’ treatment by making them feel as though since they have less than the other patients?
+) Kirkbride’s marriage to Eliza was one that promoted the effectiveness of medicine to cure insanity and allow the patient to return to a normal life. What happens to the patients who are cured but are unable to return to a normal life due to prejudice or lack of acceptance? Tomes eludes to it but doesn’t go into much detail.

+) Something throughout the sources that we have read that I've realized is how widely known Kirkbride and his methods were. What made him and his time as a superintendent so well known that, "his approach to hospital management profoundly influenced a whole generation of American asylum doctors." (page 265) Discuss.
+) As we have learned from earlier readings, people could be brought to stay in an asylum for any number of reasons, voluntary or not. In the chapter "The Perils of Asylum Practice," Tomes mentions that patient-related disputes "contributed to the problem of asylum practice." (page 274) How serious were these questions being brought up and how were they solved? Who usually "won" the dispute, the institution or the patient?
