The State Is An Abusive Parent And What Can Be Done About It?
Advertisements [?]
With a heavy heart I created a blog for a little girl I love with all my heart. I built it out of desperation because I have no voice for her and she is heading towards perhaps a misery that no child deserves ~ especially a child who already has a place of endearment that is well established in a lot of people's hearts who would never hurt her, who love her almost as much as I do. If the State has its way however, that will soon end for her and they will send her into the private hell of becoming just a burden and a piece of shit for people who could really give a damn for her.

So I created this blog because the State says I cannot voice the truth in their courts. As a matter of fact I have no voice at all I can raise for her unless they decide I do, which at this time they do not allow. I cannot tell a judge what I know even though I am a family member and I know the sordid truth of her parents.

But nobody told me I couldn't speak out here on DU and this is also crossed posted on KOS. Maybe someone out there does know what can be done, already I have written reports, visited with my legislator, called the social workers, worked with the guardian, told them again and again what I know, as well as made it plain I was willing to raise this little one myself rather than allow her to become perhaps just another drug income.

Here is my blog, it has all the details and what I have seen so far, the agony for the pain it could cause, what I feel about it, and about what I see coming:

Please read it and perhaps you know something I don't know about how to help her or she is going to be sent straight to hell by her so-called “protectors” the State. The system that is full of “experts” also actively ready to allow her abuse, just so they can say they followed all the rules ~ oh yes and make sure they are not liable for any careless mistakes they have made. Who gives a damn what REALLY happens, right? Just so long as THEY all escape without harm, who cares about a little drug infested, HIV exposed baby born without even a home when she first came into the world?

I care, that’s who cares!
