Incoherent ramblings.
What sense does it make to give a child, conscious of his surroundings, back to the parents whose rights were terminated and who live 1000 miles away from the family with which he has established his first comfortable relationship and sense of stability that he has ever known? Ask the Florida adoption agencies. I bet they won't know and they are the ones that did it. The system that these children are entangled in is disgusting. The laws make it look like these battered, ill-rounded children are playskool dolls only there for the enjoyment of the social workers who have the maturity and morals of the average 6 year-old of the American nuclear family. What does the new commissioner want to do? Increase the spending on parenting classes for the violators. The flaw in that is that it has to be court-ordered and the only way for a person to get to court is to do something wrong. Seeing how most cases don't even get a slight glance until the child is torn beyond recognizability, not many cases will ever get said order, and if they do, there is a very very slight chance that the parent will ever go to these classes (and they will still get their children back). What he is saying is that the government is going to spend more money on getting the parents (not the victimized child) help after they have already screwed their child to near death, so they can get their child back and do it again. This goes back to the long followed concept of parental and, essentially, women's rights; both of which have murdered countless innocents while not putting 1 ounce of weight on the conscience of the parents or the judges that put those children back in the hands of murderers. Most judges have the mindset that it is a parental right to another chance (just as it is a women's right to choose), because the child is blood related and more over the parent's "property". Why should the parents get another chance, and at what exactly? Another chance to ruin their child's life again? Another chance to bring another human life to an end? They punish the children for being what/the product of what their parent(s) consider a mistake.The foster care/adoption system is basically prolonged, legal abortion ("it's not murder because it's not a person"), when it doesn't work out, and most of the time it doesn't. These parents who get these second chances can rest easy though; they would most likely do harder time for hitting a dog than for slowly killing their own children.
When I was looking through my SAT math practice book I found the dedication that the guy made. It made me laugh. It said:
To Rhona:
For the understanding,
For the sacrifice,
For the love.
