Lolololololol
Excuse me for laughing hysterically.
I had a foster child whose parent used heroin while pregnant. Abuse, right?
The states plan? Return child to parent.
We had one whose mother used crack. She abandoned him in a crack hose when it was raided. She was blue eyed blond American and his father was an illegal from Nicaragua. That baby lived with us for 2 years, from the time he was 6 weeks old until he was 2 years old, and yes the judge gave him back to his mother at the urging of The Association of Black and Hispanic Social Workers. He belonged in his own culture they said and opposed our wish to adopt him. The condemned him to a life of further abandonment and disruption, not what was best for him, but what best served their agenda.
Understood, however, the point is to make the Illegal PARENTS think twice about this “free pass” or “amnesty” gambit.
All we need is a good video clip, a news clip, of child protective services getting involved and it would have a great deterrent effect.
