As a result, we end up in situations like I had a couple of weeks ago where I had to take 4 kids because their mom was arrested. Or the one where there were 4 kids who had been physically and sexually abused and the 6 and 7 year olds were already acting out sexually on other children, not to mention several other serious behavior issues. We are told that we cannot stay with these children in the office, but we don't have any choice. We are not allowed to take them home or stay in a motel with them, and there simply isn't any place to put them. From the time a child is removed, particularly after hours, the oncall worker becomes responsible for the care and supervision of the child(ren), for being in contact with the parents and collecting their medical histories and for being on the phone until a placement is found, and then, if anything is found at all, there is a very high likelihood of having to drive to a location in excess of 3 hours away to deliver the children....and then drive back, Nobody understands how desperate the situation is until they've seen it from the inside. Our social structure is crumbling at the foundation. It's just a matter of time.

Maybe it is time for established orphan homes for children instead of foster homes?
