You know, you have kids who are a product of a really sucky system. Have most likely been abused since they were old enough to walk, and know the system. The three children at first said they were not abused, then flipped - why?
I just have a "they are way too easy a target" feel on this one. If it comes to light that they did it, then hang them, but something doesn't seem right.
Just an accusation against parents can remove them from the family, nothing proved. So kids are removed from parent care and placed in homes they know nothing about until some how the parents get them back. Who is to know if this is a gay family, a 4 year old is sent to, or a heterosexual family. Parents don't know.
Once placed waiting to have to prove yourself innocent the children are from a Catholic family now in the controll of Bible Baptists or vice a verse. Nothing a parent can do, if on visitation with the kids they tell the parents they are being molested by the foster family, no one will listen to you or the child.
A really big fear for anyone unless wealthy enough to get a lawyer.
Watched as a friend of of my daughters went into a group home for unwed mothers. She gave birth to a beautiful white, blue eyed baby boy. Oh the problems the mother had, every move she did was documented, the waiting list for a baby like him was a mile long. Oh how they pushed the mother to release her baby for adoption. Finally the mother and baby came to me for help and we gave her just a room and expected her to work to pay for her and baby's room and boarding. This the mother did and I felt a loss when they were off on their own.
Targets of children are those really abused or are told by the child shrinks they are abused.
Darn there are few of us adults today that could not be told by some shrink we were abused, Dad beat my ass for setting the cat on fire. I was caught in the hay loft messing with Sue and both mom and and dad got on my back for that.
Is it abuse to to come down down on a child for unacceptable behavior ???
